Grasse (French pronunciation: [ɡʁas]; Provençal Occitan: Grassa in classical norm or Grasso in Mistralian norm [ˈɡɾasɔ]; traditional Italian: Grassa) is the only subprefecture of the Alpes-Maritimes department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur region on the French Riviera. In 2017, the commune had a population of 50,396.

Considered the world's capital of perfume,[3][4] Grasse obtained two flowers in the Concours des villes et villages fleuris[5] and was made Ville d'Art et d'Histoire (City of Art and History).[6]
