A captivating fragrance has a way of lingering in the air, evoking cherished memories and transporting you back to special moments, whether from childhood or the early days of romance. In Èze, you can create your own signature Eau de Cologne using a selection of nine different essences. This picturesque medieval village, perched on a hilltop with stunning views of the French Riviera, is renowned for its beautiful botanical gardens and the historic ruins of Èze Castle.
At the famed Fragonard Parfumeur, you’ll embark on a unique olfactory journey, participating in a workshop led by a master perfumer. Throughout the day, you’ll explore the rich history of fragrance creation, discover the origins of various raw materials, and learn about the vital role of the “nose” – the expert who skillfully blends scents to achieve perfect harmony.
The highlight of your experience will be crafting your custom scent from a selection of nine essences, which may vary based on availability. These could include essential oils, absolutes like jasmine, tuberose, or narcissus, and natural extracts such as cedarwood or sandalwood. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a 100ml bottle of your personalized fragrance and a diploma signed by your instructor. Each time you wear your unique scent in the future, you’ll be transported back to those sunny autumn days in this enchanting medieval town along the French Riviera.
