How the Glitters and Grace Perfume Bar Works: A Scent Experience Like No Other
Welcome to the Glitters and Grace Perfume Barโwhere fragrance meets artistry, and every guest becomes a perfumer. Whether you’re hosting a bridal shower, popping up at a boutique, or planning a luxe ladiesโ night, our mobile perfume bar transforms any event into an unforgettable scent experience.
Weโre Not Just MixingโWeโre Designing

At Glitters and Grace, weโre trained perfumers. That means we donโt just hand you a bottle and hope for the bestโwe walk you through the process of scent design with care, creativity, and a touch of magic. Your scent host is your guide, helping you explore materials, ask questions, and discover what truly delights your nose.
We encourage you to take your time. Smell everything. Ask about ingredients. Share your favorite perfumes or memories. This is your moment to create something personal and beautiful.
Step 1: Choose Your Base
We offer 12 expertly crafted perfume bases, each designed for longevity, balance, and blendability. These bases are the foundation of your fragranceโthink of them as the canvas for your scent masterpiece.
- Want to mix your own base? Go for it! We support creative freedom.
- Prefer a proven formula? Our bases are optimized for wear and stability.
Note: While we encourage experimentation, we canโt guarantee that custom base blends will hold together perfectly. But thatโs part of the fun!
Step 2: Select Your Notes (Top + Heart)

Next, youโll choose 1 to 3 fragrance notes from our curated library of 125 scents. These include both top notes and heart notes, which together shape the personality of your perfume.
- Top notes are the first impressionโbright, fresh, and fleeting. Think citrus, herbs, and light florals.
- Heart notes emerge after the top fades, forming the soul of your scent. These are richer florals, spices, and soft woods.
Your scent host will help you balance these layers for harmony and impact. Once youโve chosen your notes, we blend them together in a beakerโyes, a real perfumerโs beaker!โto create your custom fragrance.
Step 3: Bottle It Up
Once your blend is perfected, we pour it into your atomizer. Your perfume has already been macerated (meaning the ingredients have been pre-blended for stability), but it will smell even more delightful after 24 hours as the notes settle and bloom.
Step 4: Save + Reorder with Ease
We record your ingredients and perfume profile, then send you an email with a QR code. You can:
- Reorder your exact blend anytime
- Build it yourself if you’re a scent enthusiast
- Email us questions about your blending and details. We keep this on record for you indefinitely.
