Grasse is interesting for lovers of aromas. This is the perfume capital. Roses and jasmine grow in its vicinity, from which esters are obtained, which are added to almost all perfumes.

Even if you do not understand perfumery, you have heard about Chanel, and both components are present in their composition. The city has a separate museum dedicated to the history of perfumery. Museum guides will show you old containers and appliances, and some of you can take a walk to the perfume factory.
