Plan to visit May 8-9-10th. I read mention of the tour in Eze as well as Grasse, that the one in Grasse is more in depth. Is this so? How do I find the options ?
Thank you

Dear Maggie,
Thank you for your question. The guided tour in Eze is a bit different than the one in Grasse, as follow:
The first, our Historic Factory in Grasse, offers a visit to the perfumer's workshop and organ, the distillery, the maceration and filtration workshop, the craft workshop and the soap factory. This is one of the last examples of the artisanal and family factories of the Grasse region. During production hours (from 9 am to 12 pm and from 2 pm to 5 pm from Monday to Friday), you will be able to see the stages of maceration, filtering and conditioning of our perfumes, as well as the soap creation workshop.
Our Fleurs Factory, also in Grasse, is a real laboratory of production. Visitors discover the modern production processes (chromatography), the workshop and its packaging process. It introduces the different methods of extraction and processing of raw materials. During production hours (from 9 am to 12 pm and from 2 pm to 5 pm from Monday to Friday), you will be able to see the stages of mixing fragrances, performing chromatographic quality tests and conditioning of perfumes, as well as our most important soap-making workshops.
Finally, our Laboratory Factory in Eze-Village allows the discovery of the secrets of manufacture of our cosmetic care products. During the production periods (from 9 am to 12 am and from 2 pm to 6 pm from Monday to Friday), visitors are able to see the design stages of our creams, shower gels and solid perfumes. A soap-making workshop is also available.
These free guided tour last around 30 minutes are followed by an olfactive discovery of Fragonard’s creations, displaying more than 90 years of traditional know-how and craftsmanship in the creation of perfume, all produced traditionally in our factories.
I hope it will answer your questions.
Warm regards,
The Fragonard team
