Grasse

The foothills of the Alpes-Maritimes define the setting of Grasse — steep streets and terraces rise above the Côte d’Azur hinterland, while the local climate has supported flower growing for centuries. Known internationally for perfumery, the town has long worked with jasmine, May rose and other fragrant plants used in scent composition. The International Perfume Museum documents this craft, and historic houses such as Fragonard, Molinard and Galimard remain part of Grasse’s identity. Its compact old centre is marked by stone lanes, small squares and the cathedral of Notre-Dame-du-Puy.
