Cour des Senteurs

Later on, for the project of la Cour des Senteurs, the city asked Nicolas Gilsoul[1], architect/landscape architect, to create a new design this garden.

La Cour des Senteurs represents a meeting of culture, history and nature combined.

Project owner: City of Versailles Architect: For the initial plan of "Maison des Parfums", an exhibition space of the perfume history, Philippe Pumain, architect and museographer, in collaboration with Elisabeth de Feydeau (fr), historian of perfume.

"The over-hanged structure of the display window has been modified, because here we don’t have enough pedestrian area in la rue de Chancellerie, although we need to attract and invite the maximum visitors into this public space.

Finally, the front side of la Maison des Parfums has been restructured with an image of the perfumes shop of former period".
