Perfumer for a Day Workshop with Patrizio at the Garden

In this fun one-day workshop, you’ll get to know some of the main ingredients used in perfumery arts, discover how to use the most exotic aromas, and have fun designing and blending your own custom-made perfume. The class is divided into three parts:

Introduction: Fundamental information, brief theory on perfumery and safety.

Build up olfactive memories: Learn the raw materials of perfumery, testing the scent of different types of aromatic ingredients. Participants are encouraged to write down some descriptive remarks about these odors, using whatever associations come to mind so to build up a network of associations to assist in remembering the odors.

Be your own perfumer: Using the techniques learned in the previous steps and using the materials provided, each participant will design a formula, blend ingredients, and make a custom perfume or cologne to take home.

All materials provided (EOs, natural isolates, carrier oils, glass vials, pipettes, gloves, etc.).
