  • This workshop is a perfect introduction to the fundamentals of perfumery and the creative process of fragrance-making. While it will provide you with a fascinating look behind the scenes, it is not a comprehensive curriculum for a professional career in perfumery.

  • Top Notes: The initial impression; light, volatile molecules that fade quickly. Approximately 15-30 minutes, ie. Citrus, Bergamot, Pink Pepper. Middle Notes: The heart of the fragrance; the main body of the scent.Approximately 2-4 hours, ie.Rose, Jasmine, Lavender, Neroli. Base Notes: The foundation; heavy molecules that linger for many hours. Up to 8 hours or more, ie. Vanilla, Sandalwood, Musk, Patchouli.

  • Unlike a mass-market fragrance, your bespoke scent is 100% custom-made for you, and the formula is kept in a secure database for your exclusive use. The cost also reflects the use of high-quality raw materials. Bespoke perfumes often utilize a higher percentage of natural ingredients, which can be more expensive than the synthetic molecules typically used in commercial fragrances.

  • There are 174,356,582,400 combinations available with the current scent library used in this class. It is implausible you would share the same tastes as someone else with that probability.
