La Source Parfumee

Solar Tour 2008 – Day 9: Since Grasse is known for its perfume industry, we’ve been wondering where all the flowers and other ingredients are coming from. Not far away from Gourdon, a small perfumery – La Source Parfumee – has opened its garden to the public. Truly is was the source of the perfume. When we visited, they were harvesting the lavender and also gave us some as present. The garden also has two viewing points into the Gorges-du-Loup, by itself already a reason for a visit. The best time to see this garden is probably in spring and early summer.
We also wanted to visit the Gorges-du-Loup and the Cascade de Courmes but again it was impossible to park our motor home anywhere, so we left and returned to Pont-du-Loup, where we’ve already been earlier in the morning.
