Initiate yourself into the world of natural perfumery thanks to Lamia, a passionate enthusiast for fragrance and the art of perfumery!
This workshop will open with a theoretical introduction, where Lamia will talk about the history of perfume through the centuries and the legends associated with it. She’ll introduce you to the perfumer’s organ as well as the most beautiful and rare natural essences; you’ll learn all about the olfactory pyramid and how to create the classic harmonies of fine perfumery under her guidance! She’ll guide you through the methods of extracting raw materials as well as the vocabulary used in blind smelling.
The workshop will continue with the practical side, starting with the choice of scents and the olfactory ambiance that you’d like to express through your creation; you’ll be able to test various mixtures to see what corresponds to your tastes and expectations. Finally, Lamia will show you how to weigh your final blend and fill your bottle like a true perfumer.
This workshop will end with a friendly chat over a scented drink and sweet treat.
After a session of creativity and knowledge sharing, you’ll take home your favourite, fully personalised 30 ml fragrance!
