An
ancient legend tells how the god Nam created Namur and its Citadel ... It is here today that Guy Delforge creates perfumes fit for the gods. |
 |
|
This
centre of creativity, unique in northern Europe, provides all visitors
with an understanding of the different steps involved in producing a
fine perfume. These perfumes are carefully crafted and matured deep
in the cellars of the Citadel , silent witnesses from the days of Charles
the Fifth ! |

|
Guy
Delforge, presiding with the Maestro's baton over an orchestra of rich
fragrances, has prepared for the visitor's pleasure an underground journey
of discovery where each phase of this remarkable craft is shown to full
advantage : the composition of a subtle symphony of different scents,
the maceration process, the miraculous birth of a perfume, olfactory
testing, chilling, filtration, the art of presentation ... |
 |
|
Add
to this a fascinating exhibition featuring the art of perfume making
and many sculptures and paintings. |
 |
|
Visitors
are soon under the spell of this 'light, sound and perfume' show and
the enchantment is such that the outside world is rapidly forgotten. |
