| Provence, France (Episode #43) High in the hills above the Cote D'Azur, we visit the homes of fine food and fine perfumes, both such every day stimulants for the senses. The Grasse region has been home to the world's finest perfumes since the 16th Century. We visit the Mane Fils company, family owned for four generations and chat with president, Jean Mane and see the how fields of roses, jasmine and lavender are turned into our most personal of luxuries. Then, off to the cooking school of Patricia Robinson, where guests and students visit through the summer to learn Tricia's culinary skills at her Taste of Provence villa. The scenery around this region, is a wondrous sight for the traveler, where we see the medieval mountain top villages of Gourdon and St. Paul de Vence. From Taste of Provence
