It blends the fundamentals of a perfume 101 class with the hands‑on joy of a scent blending class, making it ideal for private events, corporate experiences, and destination gatherings.
Perfume 101 & Scent Families
Guests learn how perfume is built in layers, explore raw materials, and compare fragrance families. This is the educational foundation of every perfume making class we teach in Chicago, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, and beyond.
Write Your Scent Story
Guests write a scent story and structure their fragrance like a perfumer—learning evaluation, balance, and composition. This is the heart of our custom perfume workshop experience.
Create Two Custom Perfumes
Each guest creates one structured perfume during the workshop, then a second scent at the mobile perfume bar. This dual‑creation format feels expansive, luxurious, and deeply personal.
