Description

Explore natural perfumery and slow down your senses in this beginner hands-on session. Designed for those new to perfumery, this experience introduces the foundations of natural perfume creation by exploring top, middle, and base notes, and how they interact to create balance, depth, and harmony. In this class you will experience nine natural aromas, experiencing how each one changes over-time, how they cooperate, and how scent can evoke memory, emotion, and presence. Through guided smelling and reflection, you will identify which scents resonate most deeply with you.

This session culminates in the creation of your own personalized perfume. Natural perfumery offers more than fragrance; it provides an instant moment of calm and reconnection in a fast-moving world. Working with plant-based scents can promote grounding, clarity, and instant calmness, inviting you to pause, breathe, and carry that sense of balance with you long after the course ends.
