Luxury Villas in Grasse

Grasse has been the South of France's, and some say the world's, capital for fragrances and perfume manufacturing for centuries. The soft scents of jasmin and lavender seem to have been soaked up by the city leaving a permanent aroma that lingers in its twisting little lanes, only to be reinforced by the many perfume shops, crafts galleries and restaurants that dot the city. There are still several factories open to the public where you can learn more about the mysterious alchemy of chemistry and palate that makes some of the world’s most famous fragrances. Fragonard, Molinard and Galimard are just some of the better known names to visit. Another great opportunity to purchase some wonderful gifts to take home with you!
