Installed since 1926 in this magnificent factory, tannery in the 18th century, it became a perfumery factory at the very beginning of the following century. Completely renovated and sublimated in 2013, it offers an original journey of discovery of the mysteries of traditional perfumery, from the processing of raw materials to the packaging of finished products. The machines used, from copper stills to soap workshops, offer historical, social and cultural interest in the techniques and working conditions governing family perfumery until the 1950s.
