"Discovery" perfume creation Workshop
Immersive and Creative

The profession of perfumer, also known as a “nose,” is both unique and fascinating.
It requires sensitivity, patience, and a strong attention to detail.

I invite you to step behind the scenes, from the formulation process to the selection of raw materials, which make up what is known as the “perfumer’s organ.”
Because creating a fragrance is much like composing a musical score. Top, heart, and base notes, as well as the different olfactory families, all come together to tell a unique story.

The top, heart and base notes, the different families, enable the fragrance to tell a unique story.

Each workshop is a true initiation, where I share my expertise and passion to guide you in crafting your own personal fragrance, which you’ll take home in a 30 ml bottle.
And as a thoughtful gesture, a few souvenir photos of the experience will be sent to you afterwards.
