Fragrance Workshops
Book your space for a fragrance workshop and explore the complex world of perfumery. From interpreting top, middle and base notes to understanding ratios, solvents and maceration, you will learn how to craft fragrances using a blend of different materials like essential oils, absolutes, isolates, extracts and aroma molecules.
Perfume is wearable alchemy. Every bottle of fragrance contains a mixture of materials derived or synthesized from nature. We practice a 80/20 approach in favour of natural materials over synthetic aromachemicals. Both can be extremely effective when worked together to improve the sillage, drydown and character of a fragrance. When we do make use of synthetic aromachemicals, those materials are vegan and sourced from transparent suppliers embracing cruelty-free practices and green chemistry.
