Worth the visit! - There were 8 of us and Farhim led the tour. We found it very interesting and informative. Farhim was knowledgeable and happily answered all our questions! It was great to have a taste of some Seychellois fruit and to find out all about how the perfume is made. We would definitely recommend this as a place to visit and to buy some wonderful perfume. Thank you very much Farhim and the rest of the team, we had a great time today.

Great free guided tour - We were traveling with Creole on a day tour called "Wild South". One of the stops was at Domaine de Val des Près - Craft Village. In the rear of the facility are the production rooms of Coco de Mer Collection. We were warmly welcomed and received a great, informative and free German-speaking tour of the production stages and premises. We even saw how a Coco de Mer was opened and we were able to taste the heart of the coconut. The tour was very interesting and appealing. Afterwards we bought two small bottles of Coco de Mer perfume as a souvenir - they smell really great! We can really highly recommend visiting this place!:) Best regards Rachel & Roman from Switzerland

Should you plan on an island tour - Short but very informative tour to process the Coco de Mer for perfume and medicinal purposes. You also get a free cup of coconut water.

Enjoyable - We had a few hours to kill after a holiday to Denis Island whilst we waited for our flight from Mahé back to the UK. We stumbled across this place when visiting the Craft Village. Really enjoyable and informative, we had some fun with our guide Farhine who was the perfect host!

Unique place, short visit but really enjoyable. - This is totally unique business, there is short free tour from the very friendly staff and you can see the whole hand processed business of producing the perfumes. There is some very unique fact you can learn too about the coco de mer. It is on eht same site as a craft village, parking for us was easy. A short but very enjoyable visit.

Best perfume - The Coco de Mer perfume, crafted in the heart of Seychelles, is a unique and captivating fragrance that embodies the essence of this tropical paradise. Made from the extract of the coco de mer, the world’s largest nut, this perfume offers a truly exotic and luxurious scent experience.
A special thanks to the wonderful Italian lady who assisted me to get the 4 fragrance and delivered to me
Thank you 🙏
