We founded a local charity, Parfums de Vie in 2008, our goal is to improve the lives and opportunities available for the marginalized and underprivileged children and youth of Grasse, through a variety of educational programs and activities.
We believe that we can make a difference for tomorrow through investing in the youth of today, and Parfums de Vie has impacted hundreds of children and families, and become known as a force for good in Grasse and beyond.
Your choice to stay in our beautiful home helps us to keep doing this local community work that we feel so passionately about.
We absolutely love the outdoor life here on the French Riviera and enjoy walking, running and biking on the many fabulous trails right on our doorstep. We love swimming in the sea, waking up to sunshine 300 days a year and we never cease to be thankful for the incredible views of the beautiful and historic town of Grasse and the Mediterranean coast.
