Set off to discover Grasse

The history of Grasse

In the Middle Ages, Grasse was known for its tanning activity. From the 16th century onwards, artisans began perfuming leather gloves, giving rise to the local tradition of perfumery. Thanks to the cultivation of jasmine, rose and orange blossom, the town gradually became the world capital of perfume.

Today, Grasse is a vibrant town that combines heritage, culture and the Provençal way of life. Its historic centre, museums, perfumeries and markets make it an ideal destination for discovering the French Riviera hinterland.

What is the best time to visit Grasse?

Spring: a pleasant time to enjoy walks, gardens and blossoms, with generally mild temperatures.

Summer: the liveliest season, ideal for combining a visit to Grasse with trips along the French Riviera. It’s best to plan visits in the morning.

Early autumn: an excellent compromise, with a still-mild climate and often more moderate visitor numbers.

Winter: a quieter season, well suited to cultural visits, museums and off-season getaways.
