What to Expect

Your perfume-making experience in Nice takes place in a dedicated workshop space located in the city centre, just a short walk from the Promenade des Anglais. The setting is calm and welcoming, designed for small groups of up to ten participants. You’ll be welcomed by a professional trained in artisanal perfumery who will guide the entire session. The fragrance workshop in Nice lasts approximately two hours and is open to participants aged 13 and above.

The session begins with an introduction to the world of perfumery. Your instructor explains the origins of perfume, from ancient uses of aromatic materials to more recent innovations in the industry. You’ll learn how ingredients are sourced, processed, and categorised. This short theoretical part gives context to the creative phase that follows.

You’ll then move on to an olfactory exercise where you smell and evaluate a wide variety of scent profiles. Your guide will explain the olfactory pyramid, including the roles of top notes (the first impression), heart notes (the main character), and base notes (the long-lasting foundation). You’ll be introduced to a curated selection of high-quality raw materials, such as essential oils and absolutes from floral, woody, citrus, or spicy categories.

Step by step, you’ll be supported in developing your own fragrance. You’ll test, adjust, and balance each component of your formula under the instructor’s guidance. The goal is to build a stable and wearable composition that reflects your preferences or mood. This part of the workshop is practical and technical, but accessible to all skill levels.

Once you finalise your formula, you will bottle your fragrance in a 30ml (1 fl oz) spray bottle, packaged in a protective case. Your formula will be kept on file so you can request another bottle later. The session ends with a short review of what you’ve created and learned.

This perfume creation workshop in Nice provides practical insight into perfumery and allows you to create a perfume in Nice that is truly personal and made with professional-grade materials.
