Additional Information & Description
Palais Garnier’s grand interiors and the chance to make your own perfume bring two distinct sides of Paris together in one guided visit. Begin at the opera house, then continue to the Fragonard Perfume Museum for a hands-on workshop. The tour moves from architectural detail to the ingredients of fragrance, with a custom scent to take home at the end.
Inside Palais Garnier
Explore the grand staircases and salons of the Palais Garnier, also known as the Opéra Garnier, with an expert guide. Painted ceilings draw your attention upwards, while the 30-metre-high marble Grand Staircase gives the interior its dramatic scale. The guided visit adds historical context to what you see, connecting the building’s decorative details with the story of this 19th-century opera house rather than leaving you to interpret the rooms alone.
Architecture with a literary legacy
Built by Charles Garnier at the wishes of Emperor Napoleon III, the opera house is an important example of Second Empire architecture, with Beaux-Arts interiors. Its intricate design also inspired Gaston Leroux’s 1910 novel The Phantom of the Opera, which later became Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical. That connection adds a literary dimension to the visit: this is the building whose interiors helped shape the setting of the story.
From perfume ingredients to your own scent
The next stop is the Fragonard Perfume Museum, where the focus shifts to traditional French perfume making. Learn about the production process and view key ingredients before joining the workshop. You then move from learning about fragrance to creating it, making your own custom scent to take home. The museum visit and practical session form the second part of the tour, giving you both an introduction to the craft and a finished creation of your own.
