About this audio guide
This guide to Fragonard's Fabrique des Fleurs, just outside Grasse near Cannes, follows Agnès Costa, a twenty-two-year-old law graduate from Paris handed a family factory to build and run in the nineteen-eighties. It walks the working rooms, from laboratory and stills to bottling line and soap press, and reaches back to the notary who founded the perfume house in nineteen twenty-six. Best heard before you step out into the flower garden.
