We envision a world where everybody feels their best – physically, emotionally, spiritually and psychologically. On a trip of a lifetime to India, we stumbled upon a perfume store in Rajasthan and purchased the shop’s stock of crystal glass bottles on a whim. Told of their unlikely arrival by India Post, I promised to follow my dream if they arrived safely home.

As the founder, I’ve immersed myself in the natural world studying Natural Perfumery under world renowned alchemist Mandy Aftel, Flower Essences, Cannabis Terpene Blends, Asia-Pacific Natives, Aromatherapy, Plant Shamanism, Medical Herbalism and Rongoa Maori Medicine. I also hold a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacology & Psychology and Performance Music, relevant for my early understanding of classical composition.

I’m well-travelled with over fifteen years business acumen specialising in Sales & Marketing, leading international projects. This tapestry of interests has formed the basis of a new approach to designing and sharing Natural Fragrance; Scent, Soul & Science. We’ve hosted over a thousand Club Members in three global locations and made over fifty fragrances for brands, people and places.

All of our team enrols in our in-house training programme to stay passionately abreast of international trends and techniques in fragrance, technology, art therapy and wellbeing. Not a day goes by where we don’t experiment with scent, soul science.

Thank you for being part of our scented journey.
Samantha Copland, Founder & Scent Designer

Great teachers and got to smell so many different scents! Great to also smell everyone's creations. Overall an enjoyable afternoon. I'd love to do the next class.

This was a great experience and a fun way to spend Sunday afternoon. Learner a lot about scents. Bubbly and quality nibbles were an unexpected bonus.

Was a fun class, nice afternoon to meet new people and learn about perfume making located at a beautiful venue. It is very much an intro class, too whats involved. The teachers were there helping out a cheat sheet to smells that go together would have been helpful in saying that though, its meant to be experimental to your choice so it might defeat the purpose. I had a nice time, went by myself and felt very included in the group and I would recommend to friends to go.

I has so much fun participating in the fragrance workshop, Samantha and her team are such a pleasure to deal with, and so helpful. We hosted the workshop as a drop in style format which was part of a larger event, and it worked exceptionally well. From the get go Samantha was so passionate about ensuring everything was perfect, and it was. The workshop was enjoyed by all sexes and ages, I can 't wait for another client to pitch the workshop for. LOVED IT!

The experience was really really good.
I've organised this event for a group of my girlfriends (20 ppl) as a celebration for getting out of lockdown since we haven't seen each other for some time.
The venue was great, the teachers were really professional and helpful. We were all really pleased, even those that didn't actually make something that they would normally wear, they were all really pleased with the whole experience.

Great incite into the perfume world. Presented well with good one on one assistants when needed

Genevieve Dolan • Apr 2021

Sam and Maggie were incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. I attended on my own and I felt completely at ease from the outset. The location was spectacular (views over Melbourne CBD and beyond!) and I learnt so much about how to make / measure and test options for making my very own perfume. I had a brilliant time and I’m looking forward to signing up for the master class!

What was the teacher like?
They were really nice! My friend and I were quite indecisive but they were super patient with us, which I appreciated a lot :)

How was the venue?
It was really nice and fitting for the class. The atmosphere was nice and it had a lot of ventilation in the room so we didn't feel too stuffy.

If materials were provided, did you like them?
Yes, definitely learned a lot about new scents and fragrances.

Was the class good value for money?
Yes! Just wish that it was a little bit longer (we did go a bit overtime) so that we could play around a little more.

What did you do / learn?
We learned how to mix and blend certain scents together to make a perfume.

We had great time. The instructor was very experienced and patient with our group. There was a lot of oils to choose from, so we all created a very nice perfume that we took home.
