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 🙏

Learn the magic of the Coco de Mer! - This was a completely unplanned and surprisingly interesting quick tour and summary of the coco de mer fruit. We stumbled across this mini factory when visiting the Craft Village. The owners were there and explained the significance of the coco de mer fruit and the industry it creates. We saw how they make the oils and the perfume.
It’s a quick stop that’s worth your time to learn and support a small, local family business. Oh and to buy nice perfume too!

Great perfume - Very interesting, free guided tour and great fragrances. We could not resist and took 2 large perfume with us. Oud and Fanm for women. Haven't worn it on my skin yet and hope it keeps what was promised. Gave a discount on 2 packs thank you very much for that.

A BONUS! Must do when visiting Mahé , Seychelles - 📍Located on the main island of Mahé ( Au Cap district in the Artisanal Village ) is the Coco de Mer factory, @cocodemerseychelles .
In this FREE tour factory you will get the chance to taste the flesh of the Coco de Mer, taste the tea made from its Kernel and get the opportunity to learn and witness the process of making authentic perfumes made with 100% Natural Coco de Mer extract ( you even get the chance to sample the perfumes ). The factory guide and sales girl were very knowledgeable about the products and were very pleasant. We ended up leaving the place with some incredible perfumes 😃. Coco de Mer Collection
This is a BONUS for anyone visiting the island!
*NB: The Coco De Mer tasting all depends on the availability of the Coco De Mer. Best to call and inquire before hand*.

A MUST SEE! - Your time on Mahé must include a tour of the Coco de Mer perfume factory. Fahine was a knowledgeable tour guide with a great sense of humor. Get those fragrances while you can because there is NO ONLINE SHOP.
