Grasse occupies a hillside position in the pre-Alps above the Côte d’Azur, at an elevation that keeps it cooler than the coast while maintaining clear views toward the Mediterranean. It is internationally recognised as the world capital of perfume, a designation rooted in centuries of cultivating jasmine, rose de mai, and tuberose across the surrounding terraced countryside. The old town retains its medieval street pattern, its covered arcades, and a density of 18th-century hôtels particuliers that give the city a weight and seriousness rarely found at this altitude.
The old town centres on Place aux Aires and Place du Cours, where a daily market runs through the morning. The International Perfume Museum and the Fragonard, Molinard, and Galimard perfumeries are all within the historic core. Cannes is approximately 35 kilometres by road, with the restaurants and retail of La Croisette accessible in under 40 minutes.
Grasse sits roughly 25 kilometres north of Cannes and 30 kilometres west of Nice. The A8 motorway is accessible via Cannes or via the RN85, connecting the city to the broader Côte d’Azur corridor. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport, the second busiest in France with direct routes to most major European cities and several intercontinental destinations, is approximately 40 kilometres away, typically reached in 45 to 55 minutes by car depending on coastal traffic.
