Perfume making was basic but I did learn a little bit. You get to keep the small bottle, but others of our party just tossed it because they didn't love the scent. Cost is a bit high for this experience, when the tour part can be done for free. If you are considering booking the Mini perfume experience just so you can "have a reservation" my suggestion is to skip it, because you can walk up to the front desk and then go into the perfume museum for free with no advance reservation needed. They don't make that entirely clear on the website perhaps to drive folks into the Mini workshop tour. Yes our guide added some commentary in the museum portion, but we don't think it added enough to justify the cost. The Fragonard shop is another matter though - their perfume and related items prices are actually good. Prices are in range of what you might pay for a perfume or cologne at any usual shop, but with Fragonard you know it is exclusive and hard to find, so it is a good idea to buy one or more items here.
