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.

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. ...
