Interesting experience.Free entry for visiting the museum. If you're going, be sure to sign up for the perfume making workshop. We learned all that goes into the perfume making process and made our own perfume. It was a wonderful outing! Reasonably priced as well! Mariam, our instructor and guide was extremely friendly and patiently taught us all that goes into perfume making.

Musée Parfum is an magnificent tour. Went with the Go City Paris pass. A fun and quick lab session where you learn about the different components of perfume creation. Then a great tour of the house that explains the history of perfume making then down to the shop for a little more smell testing and a chance to purchase some of their perfumes at a discount. If you buy 5 you get a discounted price. ...

When is the best time to visit Musée du Parfum Fragonard (Paris, France)?

In late summer, guides often take holiday—rely on the QR self-tour if no tour runs. On winter Sundays, the museum closes at 4:30 PM—plan to finish by late afternoon.
