Lonely Planet review for Théâtre-Musée des Capucines

The Perfume Museum, run by the perfumerie Fragonard (but under extensive renovation when we last visited), is a fragrant collection opposite the Palais Garnier, tracing the history of scent and perfume-making from ancient Egypt to today’s designer brands. A short distance to the south is the Théâtre-Musée des Capucines, a kind of branch located in an early 20th-century theatre that concentrates largely on bottling (for example, in crystal flasks from Bohemia) and packaging the heady substance. There’s a decent short film here and, of course, a shop selling Fragonard scents.
