Musée du Parfum review: our verdict
At the Musée du Parfum, you visit with your nose. Perfumer and ethnobotanist Abderrazak Benchaâbane has installed a collection of rare objects on perfume making, aromatic plants, and a room where you can smell the typical scents of Morocco in a 19th-century riad in Diour Saboun; upstairs, in a dark room, the lamp posts are actually plant diffusers.
The real moment is the workshop: at the perfume bar, you assemble your own eau de toilette from isolated scents, guided by the team, in less than an hour. It's perfect for a couple, friends, curious teens, or a gift you won't find in the souks; it's not for those who just want to visit, as the rooms are small and you can see them quickly.
The trap: arriving for the workshop without having booked, as it must be reserved in advance on the website or by phone. The price: 50 DH for entry (as of March 2026). The best slot: the morning, from 9 a.m., as the museum is open every day.
