Rousing emotion and awakening the senses, this new cultural institution offers an original, informative and playful way of presenting the world of perfume and unveiling its many mysteries. Housed in a private mansion of 1,400 m2 on the elegant Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré - the 19th-century residence of Antoine-Marie Roederer, and home more recently to the fashion house of Christian Lacroix -, this splendid museum traces the history of perfume from the Egypt of the Pharaohs to the present day. Sublime ! Grand musée du Parfum, 73 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, Paris 8. www.grandmuseeduparfum.fr
