Èze is a picturesque medieval village located on the French Riviera, between Nice and Monaco.
The village is built on a rocky outcropping and offers stunning panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea. This beautiful village dates back to the middle ages and clings impressively to the mountainside 400m above the Mediterranean Sea.
Panoramic views, ancient façades, and an unbelievable attention to detail are some of the most memorable features of this lovely village.
Visitors can explore the narrow, winding streets lined with charming shops and art galleries, or take a stroll through the Jardin Exotique, a botanical garden filled with cacti and succulents.
The village is also home to the ruins of a 12th century castle and the Eglise Notre-Dame de l'Assomption, a beautiful church with a bell tower offering more great views.
The village is also home to several art galleries, souvenir shops, and local artisans workshops, making it a perfect destination for art lovers.
When there, don't miss out on the Parfumerie Fragonard, a perfumery and museum founded in 1926 by Eugene Fuchs, which is one of the oldest and most famous perfumeries in the region. The company is named after the French painter Jean-Honoré Fragonard, and its perfumes are inspired by the scents of the Mediterranean region.
The perfumery offers a wide range of perfumes, soaps, and other fragranced products, all of which are made on-site using traditional methods. Visitors can take a tour of the perfumery and learn about the history of perfumery, the different ingredients used to make perfumes, and the process of creating perfumes.
The Parfumerie Fragonard also has a museum that showcases the history of perfumery and the art of perfumery. The museum features a collection of antique bottles, jars, and other perfumery tools, as well as a collection of paintings, prints, and engravings related to the history of perfumery.
