The Experience

Discover Your Olfactory Profile

The session begins with a personalized olfactory assessment. A guided questionnaire helps determine fragrance preferences based on individual tastes, memories, and lifestyle.

Explore Fine Fragrance Ingredients

Participants will experience 18 high-quality raw materials sourced from luxury perfumery. These include essential oils, absolutes, and synthetic notes used in fine fragrance creation.

Blending and Composition

With expert guidance, attendees will assemble a unique fragrance using the olfactory pyramid structure:

  • Top Notes: The first impression of the perfume, usually citrus, herbal, or fresh accords.

  • Base Notes: The lasting impression, including woody, amber, or musky accords.
