Last week’s Introduction to Natural Perfumery Workshop was such a lovely reminder of how powerful scent can be.
Not just perfume itself, but the memories, moods and stories that certain aromas seem to hold.
Over the course of the day we explored the history of perfumery, worked with beautiful natural ingredients, experimented with fragrance accords and created completely unique perfumes to take home. No synthetic fragrances. No overwhelm. Just time to slow down, smell, learn and create.
One of the nicest parts of these workshops is seeing how different everyone’s final perfume becomes, even when starting with the same ingredients.
The next workshop takes place on Friday 18th September at New Forest Aromatics in the beautiful surroundings of Setley Ridge Vineyard.
Small class sizes mean there’s plenty of guidance throughout the day, so no previous experience is needed at all.
If you’ve ever been curious about natural perfumery, essential oils or simply fancy spending a creative day immersed in beautiful scents, this is such a lovely one to experience.
