Walking through the narrow streets of Grasse on a hot summer afternoon, you enjoy the gentle touch of the wind. It brings the odors of roses, lavender and jasmine from the surrounding gardens and fields. Scents are the soul of Grasse, which is open widely for connoisseurs of beauty.The history of Famille Grasse Parfums is woven of sophisticated fragrances that are admired by the most discerning customers. So what could our past be like?Imagine how on the same sunny day at the end of the 18th century, a Burgundian knight arrived in Grasse and, enchanted by the beauty of the region, settled on this blooming land. He founded a leather factory and made gloves for the king himself. However, the leather processing was accompanied by an unpleasant smell that could only be drowned out by the fragrance of flowers.
This prompted the owner of a leather factory to open a manufactory of essential oils. Aromatic substances were extracted from local plant raw materials and exported to various countries. The small production was expanded over the years and passed from generation to generation, until it acquired a contemporary appearance.Today, Famille Grasse Parfums is a modern company that uses the high quality raw materials for the production of perfumes. Original, inspiring fragrances will give you a feeling of luxury and presence in the capital of world perfumery. And hand-painted perfume bottles demonstrate our attention to details and customer's care. Famille Grasse Parfums products are the essence of our love for beauty, nature and people.
