Looking for fun, relaxing and unique Sydney experiences? Step into the alluring world of fragrances and scents with our natural perfumery workshop!
Make your own signature scent and learn how to create two kinds of fragrances to take home with you; Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum. This class is the perfect gift for anniversaries, Mothers Day and other special occasions. Our small class size ensures our instructor is available to guide you in the creative and formulation process.
We'll start with the science and history of perfume. You'll be introduced to the different kinds of fragrances. Gain an understanding of how fragrance notes work and be guided through the fragrance pyramid and fragrance wheel. By the end of the class, you will have the confidence to layer fragrances and design your own signature scent.
With over 80 natural fragrances available in our studio, we'll explore the fragrance family from fresh, floral and fruity to spicy, earthy and woody. Using perfumer's grade alcohol and only natural absolutes, extracts, resins, essential and plant oils, you will create a scent profile that's unique to you.
You will be spoilt for choice of crowd favourites and niche scents like jasmine and ylang-ylang, frangipani, rosewood, vanilla, juniper, grapefruit, lemon, lavender, rose, patchouli, cinnamon and cedarwood to name a few. You will also be introduced to our very own Australian native ingredients like lemon myrtle, tea tree, eucalyptus blue gum and kunzea.
At the end of the workshop, you will make your own fragrances in two styles:
1) Your choice of Eau de Cologne or Eau de Toilette in a perfumer's grade alcohol base, 30ml spray bottle.
2) Eau de Parfum, a luxurious oil-based perfume in a stylish 10ml bottle, a handbag or purse must-have.
We'll also discuss the etiquette of perfumery; how to apply fragrances, what to do and not to do to make fragrances linger and last.
See available dates, Request a private class or Gift
See booking options1) Choice of Eau de Cologne or Eau de Toilette, 30ml spray bottle
2) Eau de Parfum, 10ml bottle
You will also receive a fragrance chart, which you will complete during the class. Take it home with you and re-create your signature scent or bring it back to our studio to refill.
This class is great for individuals and couples as well as for a team building activity, Christmas party, birthday or hens party.
This would also be a unique gift for her, gift for mum, anniversary gift or birthday gift.

Hi, I'm Louella from Naturally Ready. I'm a small-batch maker of handmade natural skincare products.
My handmade journey started ten years ago. I was working for Australian grain farmers and discovered just how amazing plants are, especially when it's cold pressed and turned into oil! I started making natural lip balms with plant oils from our kitchen bench. And Kiss Ready was born.
A decade on, I still formulate and hand make our eco-luxe natural products. These days, you will find me in Naturally Ready, our Marrickville studio, teaching DIY skincare and natural perfume workshops.
I also run private virtual and in-person workshops for hen's and bridal shower, birthday parties and team building. I can also travel to you for mobile on-site workshops.
I'm so excited to share my love for handmade, truly nourishing ingredients and small-batch natural skincare and fragrances with you.
Love x Louella
Fall in love with the art and ease of natural skincare making alongside Kiss Ready Lips founder, Louella Docot.

Vanessa Raptis • Dec 2023
Had an absolute blast at Louellas’ class today, her passion for her craft is absolutely infectious. You’ll leave not only with your signature scent but a new found appreciation for the science and history of fragrance. Could not recommend this class enough!
Jo Scott • Dec 2023
Luella was a great teacher and ran a really positive and engaging class, the perfect mix of science and fun facts with actually creating our own signature scents. The venue studio is great and she's a great hostess with beverages and biscuits to keep you going. Highly recommend if you're looking for something creative, fun and unique to do either by yourself, with your partner or friends.
Joan Murphy • Dec 2023
I really enjoyed the class, the energy levels, the inclusion of everyone, super impressive you remembered everyone’s names! I liked the history and background too. I thought the class could easily be 3 hours. I’ve already let a Freon know who I think will enjoy it. Thank you!
Van Thai • Dec 2023
Great experience! Louella was a lovely instructor. She made the experience interactive and educational. Would recommend to everyone!
Oscar Langmar • Dec 2023
Teacher was excellent and really enjoyed the whole experience. Listening and doing the practical component was lots of fun. Good for all ages
Neer Sengupta • Dec 2023
I booked this class as a surprise for my partner’s birthday, and it was absolutely amazing.
Louella is an enthusiastic, passionate and incredibly knowledgeable teacher. She taught us so much about perfume making, and the science and history about it. Her energy kept the class alive and engaged throughout the hours we had together and we walked away amazed that we were able to create a scent that we love.
We will definitely be back to recreate our scent. Thank you Louella, and I will see you again soon.
Fei Zhu • Dec 2023
My boyfriend and I had an amazing time making perfumes with Luella. She was passionate, knowledgeable and fun. There was plenty of time to get to know the scents before mixing our own concoction and Luella was always available to help us when we got stuck! Love my personal fragrance and my boyfriend has already been talking about wanting to going back again!
Camille Corlette • Dec 2023
Thank you Louella for a fabulous day! you really bought our brand positioning to life, "Great design ignites the senses". The day was informative, educational, inspiring and most of all loads of fun. Walking away with our signature scent was the highlight, thank you, thank you, thank you, couldn't recommended this workshop more highly for a team building, Christmas party or just a fun day out!
Natalie Barber • Dec 2023
What a fabulous class, when is the three day workshop coming! History, science, and practical rolled into one. We had a great morning and are excited to try our new scents. Thank you Louella!
Emily Carter • Dec 2023
The class was amazing! Louella was super friendly and knowledgeable. Would recommend this class to everyone.
Andre Gustian • Dec 2023
It was great class, I would love to recomend my other friends to join the class too.
Ashwini Pratap • Nov 2023
Had a wonderful day. It was very overwhelming with how many scents there was but it was great experience.
Georgia Palgan • Nov 2023
Louella was fabulous and very warm, entertaining and incredibly knowledgeable with the information, history, science and storytelling of perfume and the power of olfactory sensations. The venue was gorgeous, as soon as we stepped inside we were hit with the tantalising smells of the perfume scents. The materials were incredible to both experience their quality, such as the variety of lavenders and rosemary from different regions smelling different, to the sheer amount of choices to experiment with like Ylang Ylang from Madagascar and the Philipines or the May Chang and Italian Neroli. Would definitely recommend and return to experiment with our signature scents/perfume!
Tori Annesley • Nov 2023
Value for money was excellent with this class! It was so informative and even felt like a masterclass in our group! Louelle was so knowledgeable and was clearly passionate about her craft. It was a joy to be taught by her and she made the class fun, informative, welcoming and inclusive. I would definitely book this class again.
Hewit Chun Yin Ngai • Nov 2023
She makes everyone engaging to the class. This has been a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it.
Rachel Thomas • Nov 2023
This class was probably one of my favourite classes, Noella made the whole experience enjoyable as well as informative. She knows what she is talking about and is very well versed in her history of scents. Noella was an amazing teacher and guide, she was very respective toward all the people in the class as well as very interactive. She knew what she was talking about and was very helpful when you get confused or don't really like the scent you've mixed and how to kind of fix your scent to make it more appealing and attractive for you. I love that the class has only 6 people which gives Noella more time to spend with each individual and help them to discover their scent. The whole experience was wonderful and extremely fun. I highly recommend this class for anyone who is interested in discovering their scents and also looking to have a good time.
Kiarna Kristen • Nov 2023
Louella was an incredibly personable and caring individual who ensured you got the most out of your experience with not only a perfectly personalised fragrance but knowledge about the history, pop culture and science behind perfume making. Her studio was well laid out to create a comfortable and inspiring atmosphere with calming music and air conditioning. Cannot recommend her and her beautifully and lovingly crafted perfume class enough.
Bonnie Sy Wong • Nov 2023
The teacher is great, engaging and knowledgeable. The materials provided are also great for experimenting. The instructions are clear and the tutor is checking to making sure everyone is following. I will definitely recommend the class to friends and family.
Connor Spencer • Nov 2023
Norella was superb, very knowledge, very positive. Left the class having really enjoyed it would definitely recommend to 10/10 people
Sophia Christou • Nov 2023
Great experience! Booked the perfume making class for a group of 6 in total. Very informative and fun class.
The educator touched on the history of perfume, a little geography and covered many topics before we started making our personalised perfumes.
Would highly recommend for any occasion!
Macey Mapanao • Nov 2023
Class was both very informative and interactive! Highly recommend to try this as a solo and group activity!
Natalie Lazar • Nov 2023
We had a great time during this class. Louella was an amazing teacher; providing us with great knowledge on the history and science of scent, as well as giving us the creative freedom to design our own perfume
Christina Kokinidis • Nov 2023
Great class, really enjoyed it. Louella is overflowing with information. It was hard picking the best scents when there are so many to choose from but I got there in the end.
Felicia Schinella • Nov 2023
Was most insightful and interesting learning about how to blend different fragrances and took home my personalised fragrance
Sarah Hirodo • Nov 2023
I booked this class for me and 2 two of my friends. We expected to just rock up and go straight into perfume making, but Louella was a wonderful teacher who spent her time teaching us so much about perfume and everything behind it. Time went by so fast and despite making multiple errors, Louella was so sweet and patient with us. I would highly recommend this class! Finding your scent and then being able to recreate it forever is a must experience!
Harrison Wright • Nov 2023
Louella was absolutely fantastic, she was engaging helpful and so likeable. Her perfume making class was so much fun! I bought it for my girlfriend as a gift and honestly I think I had just as much fun as she did!
Jenni Hagland • Nov 2023
I took my daughter (age 12) to the class as she loves scents and perfumes right now and was a very fun morning. The teacher is animated and fun and told us some interesting tidbits about scent and the history around perfume making. We then got a chance to create our own scent. I wish we just had a little more time around the science and time spent smelling and blending our scents. So many choices it was overwhelming. I would definitely like to go back and do it again another time. So many more combos to try. The space was also clean and welcoming.
Sarah Edwards • Nov 2023
Both the teacher & venue were great. I was able to walk away with a signature scent I was happy with.
Ksenia Karlova • Nov 2023
Great fun informative class, the teacher is very knowledgeable, all required materials are provided and you make a unique perfume that you can use.
As a suggestion it would be nice to have more time to smell the perfume oils or have less oils and I would say more space to smell the perfume oils or divide people into groups so it’s not so crowded around the oils.
I really enjoyed the class overall and would definitely recommend to others;)
Thank you.
Sophia Douglass • Nov 2023
Inspiring workshop that helps understand the history and science of perfume.
This is my second repeat workshop with mates.
Great for Hens night too.
Brenda Zeng • Nov 2023
Great experience of forming all your favourite smells into one that tells who you are. The teacher Louella is very helpful and knows what you need to finish your own fragrance.
Shannen Bugnot • Nov 2023
Louella has such a lively soul. It was very much an enjoyable class, learnt so much about the science, the history and the art of making perfume. It was such a comfortable environment, and she made me laugh a lot. I’m very happy with how my perfume turned out, it was a wonderful experience.
Patrick Lee • Nov 2023

We were able to get the basics down and create some of our own scents, Louella is a joyful, passionate presenter and I would highly recommend this class to anyone curious about making their own perfume or even just trying something new to do.
Joanne Fadous • Nov 2023
Louellas class was so much fun! She is very knowledgeable about all the ingredients, their origins and what scents work well together. I am currently pregnant and she had a list of what I couldn't use. I had no idea that there were scents that weren't to be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Ended up with a beautiful perfume.
Would definitely recommend this class and would attend again.

Kuan Hou Lee • Sep 2023
I took my partner to this class for her birthday and she loved it! Louella was so nice and patient with everyone even when our class went over by an hour. The venue is quite small, but large enough to accomodate our class of 10. In the class, we got to make one 'signature scented' perfume made with two processes (alcohol vs oil). The venue has toilets.
I would recommend this to anyone for a birthday gift and I would gladly come back again.
Katie Pittas • Sep 2023
We enjoyed the whole perfume making experience. Louella is very informative. I can only suggest to shorten the background information a little and stick to the time frame that we expected to finish.
Gabi O'Sullivan • Sep 2023
Louella was an incredible teacher! Such charisma and vitality brought to the class. I never knew learning about the science, history and geography of perfume would be so interesting.

Louella is incredibly knowledgeable about the subject. She gave us the history of where the world of perfumes came from and how it has evolved over time. This gave us a much greater appreciation when it came time to finally put together our own scents.
It was immediately clear how passionate and it was contagious such that we all got excited to get to work.
I finally understand the texts on the back of those fragrances boxes when it says things like 'Top Notes', 'Base Notes', 'Heart Notes'.
What would I change? We unfortunately ran out of 'Lilly of the Valley' which was a very popular fragrance used for our class. I'd recommend having 2 of everything as a 'just in case', so should we ever run out of things during the class, she'll have a backup ready on the go.
It got me interested in the world of perfumes and fragrances even after the class was finished, I immediately started researching my favourite scents and because of the knowledge Louella gave, I knew what to look for.
Would I go again? Yes, but with better prep this time :)

I loved making my own perfume. It was an easy process laid out well and were given a book to write our recipes and creations in. Everybody was happy with their results.
Our instructor knew each of the scents in depth and was able to make recommendations and suggestions.
Facilities are clean and smell amazing (like flowers).

I enjoyed the whole experience. Louella is very bubbly and enthusiastic. I've learned so many things about the background of perfumes. Her suggestions are the best. It tailors to my preference. A lot of scents to mix and match. Really an interesting way to spend my holiday here in Sydney.
Sophie • Sep 2023
What a great idea to create your own natural perfume. Our teacher had so much knowledge and such a great outgoing personality which made the class a wonderful experience. One thing that could be improved is the time we have to smell the different oils and create our perfume. I would have liked to smell more samples and know more about the different oils. Maybe keep the first part a bit shorter or make the class a bit longer. But overall it was such a great experience. Let me know when I can come by to take a few pictures;)
Chantelle Bastow • Aug 2023
A great, informative and fun experience. The class was not only enjoyable but was also really educational around the history of perfume! It was so interesting formulating my own signature scent, I felt like a scientist! It was also a great way to meet a variety of people, spend quality time with your friends and have a good laugh! The teacher was great, so passionate about what she is doing with her business and her energy and fun loving nature made the experience much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for something fun to do with their loved ones!

A very enjoyable experience! Louella is an excellent teacher, sharing her knowledge and making a very fun environment. There is a great variety of fragrances we can try, and we all get to make lovely perfumes! I'm a complete beginner and it wasn't difficult at all

A great relaxing class for Sunday morning, so I did it again. The teacher was very patient and knowledgeable, and guided us in combining the scents to make our own perfume. I would definitely recommend this to others!

What a great class! The teacher Louella was so knowledgeable and had a great energy, had such fun perfecting my signature scent and loved the final product. Will be wearing daily! Highly recommend if you want to learn about scents (the history, science and products) and get creative!
Teresa Smith • Aug 2023
Absolutely loved this experience! Not only did we learn about the science and history of perfume making, we were able to leave with a signature scent. Would definitely recommend
Rebecca Dippel • Aug 2023
Informative. Interesting. Fun. Enjoyed my experience. Possibly a short break for do the making scent in tao sections to avoid overcrowding

Louella was soo lovely in hosting her perfume making class! She was very passionate, and her knowledge about perfumes was very interesting.
She helped us narrow down our scents into making it into our own personalised one, and was super helpful and patient with all of us!
She also shared some little nibbles with her very delicious Japanese green tea!
Our class went over time but Louella remained calm the whole time and didn’t rush us, so we really appreciated that! She definitely caters towards your needs and meets your expectations! Would highly recommend you trying out her classes!
Emma Wong • Aug 2023
We attended Louella’s class on Saturday as part of my daughters Hen’s Party.
Louella was engaging and generous with her knowledge. We all left with a greater appreciation for the history and biology behind perfumery.
The quality of products was outstanding. I was so excited to actually come in contact with oils I had only read about
We have all left raving about the class and knowledge gained. I personally will be returning with my husband as he found my updates and the workshop booklet fascinating
Would recommend to all
Teresa Martino • Aug 2023
I‘m completely happy with this class! Learned so much about this world. Now I know what to buy ;-)
Emma Sugiono • Aug 2023
An amazing experience! She was a lovely host, very lively and full of energy, and had lots of knowledge to share on perfumery. Plenty of beautiful scents, and she was very helpful when we felt a bit stuck on how to tweak our personalised fragrances to our liking. Highly recommend this class, totally worth it! :)
Gloria Chu • Aug 2023
The class with Louella was amazing! It was informative, interactive and fun! Such an aromatic treat for the senses. The best part is that we get to take home 2 bottles of perfumes (alcohol based and oil based), which makes the experience feel so complete and worthwhile.

Louella is very knowledgeable and engaging! Not only did we leave the class with our own perfume but we also had a lot of fun!
Courtney Matthews • Jul 2023
I have no words for how amazing this class was. Louella is an outstanding teacher, so knowledgeable about all there is to know about perfume making and so supportive of the class learning, asking questions and experimenting.
I booked this class as a surprise for my partner for her birthday and she said it was the best birthday yet.
I can’t thank Louella enough for teaching is all about the science, the history and the process in such an easy to understand way. She really got the whole class to engage and have fun.
Also thank you for staying overtime because some of us in the class were struggling to commit to decisions when it came to our signature scents!
I cannot recommend this class enough, thank you
Rachel Marks • Jul 2023

Extremely happy I picked this activity to celebrate my birthday with friends.

Thank you so much Louella <3
Matthew Pree • Jul 2023
We had the greatest time making our own signature scents from a wide variety of available fragrances. Louella was an amazing instructor, taking us through history, science and the very process of perfume making. She was engaging, very attentive to every attendee and super helpful when anyone needed assistance in choosing which scents to pair with . Louella even brought out light refreshments to re-energize the class and allowed us to go one hour over time to allow us to choose the most perfectly tailored and individualised perfume. Highly recommend and will come again!

Louella is absolutely precious. You can feel the genuine passion she has for the products. We went over time for the session but she remained ever so generous with her knowledge. It's conveniently located near Sydenham train station and is a short walk away.
Angeline Michelle • Jul 2023

I found the class wasn't boring at all, the teacher was very approachable. She helped me guide whether the scent goes well or not. The materials provided was sufficient enough, but it would be better if conveying information with more visuals (ppt for example). Overall, good value for money for new knowledge like this. If there's another course with longer duration i'll definitely book. I was enjoying it so much that 2,5 hours felt so fast.
Teacher's response
Thank you for the feedback Angeline. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the class so much, you felt that the time flew by fast!
I've thought about using a Powerpoint visual presentation to aid with the lecture, but wanted to highlight the "smelling" or sensorial experience more. I hope you found the booklet helpful with the most important points to remember about the science and art of perfume-making.
If you would like to attend a more in-depth class, I would be launching a Masterclass series soon. Hope to see you again in the studio.
Best wishes and many thanks again for supporting the studio,
Louella

Could not recommend this place enough. If you’re looking for something fun, educational and valuable to do with your time book a fragrance class with Louella! Louella is such a kind soul, making everyone feel so involved and included in the class and is incredibly accomodating. I booked the Perfume Making Class: Making your Signature Scent and you get to walk away with a completely customised eau de parfum in oil and alcohol based versions! Perfect environment for couples or friends and family! 100/10

We love the perfume that was made in this class - we need the recipe so we can create it again and again. The class was a little busier than expected, but the end result was brilliant.
Teacher's response
Hi Charlotte
I'm happy to hear you love the perfume you made in the class. I encourage you to refer back to the formulation section of our Perfume Booklet.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need to refill or do come back in the studio to re-make your Signature Scent.
Many thanks for supporting the studio

Yasmeen Shadid • Jun 2023
It was such an amazing experience, I asked the teacher to come to our establishment to run a perfume making class, not only did she provide some amazing scents for those to mix and match with but she provided the science behind the perfume, the provided the history behind it as well. She made the class so engaging. The materials was very professional and she was patient with those in the room and showed them step by step on how to make the actual perfume. Her class was absolutely beautiful and just so engaging I’m extremely satisfied with the program and I will definitely if I hope to run another course I will ask the teacher to come again. A big thank you to her and i extremely recommend her.

Louella was a great teacher, full of energy and knowledge of history and fun facts about perfume making. She made our hen's party really enjoyable.
We enjoyed the mix of history and the actual making of the perfume in our private class, so much so that 2.5 hours flew by so quickly. Each of us got our signature perfume which is the real bonus!
Highly recommended.

We went to the Perfume Making Class run by Luella for my best friend’s Hens weekend! It was such a fun, informative, and rewarding experience and we all left with unique perfumes that we were proud of. The small class setting also made it super fun to get to know some of the other attendees and the fragrances they were creating. Massive thanks to Luella, our instructor, for being so knowledge and making us laugh throughout the whole session! I will definitely be coming back again!
Megan Kilby • May 2023

I would highly recommend this class.
Nikki Malvar • May 2023
This class was fantastic. Louella was such an enthusiastic, knowledgeable and engaging teacher. I loved the sensory experience, surprising myself with things I thought I liked/didn't like. I took away a little understanding of fragrance composition, as well as cool bits of history. Loved getting to simultaneously learn and engage my creativity. Highly recommend this workshop with Louella, and I wouldn't be surprised if I come back again with other keen friends in tow.

Sharmin Sumaiya • May 2023
Class lecture was a bit long. Should have given time to make the perfumes. Ok
Teacher's response
Hi Sharmin, thank you for the feedback. You joined my Valentine's Day evening class. As guests were couples and the class was interactive, many of you were excited to share personal stories about your favourite fragrances.
The class is designed to minimise olfactory fatigue and also to encourage experimentation. Theoretical parts are essential to inspire creativity.
Our class, which was meant to end at 8.30pm, ran longer than scheduled due to the very active (and fun) class interaction. As you know, I extended to 10pm to allow everyone to satisfactorily complete their fragrances.
Thank you for supporting my studio.
Best wishes
Louella

I couldn’t recommend this class enough! Louella is so patient, informative and personable. She starts the class off briefly talking about the chemistry, history and geography of fragrances before we get into the essential oils. Her passion and enthusiasm is contagious and she creates a homely feeling with tea and biscuits in the middle of the class.
We had a group of 9 in our morning session and we all walked away laughing together.
Amazing experience 10/10

Lysette Bote • Apr 2023
This class was a blast! Louella is an amazing instructor who’s passion for perfumery really showed. We learnt a lot about the science and history of perfume - perhaps a little too much as we were really keen on smelling all the scents. This was largely because Louella had such a wide variety of scents and we wanted to smell them all! In saying that, we would definitely recommend and look forward to coming back one day.

Nikki Cyrus • Apr 2023
Louella was an amazing mentor for this class. Although she said she was nervous speaking out to all of us, I could not see that at all; she was very audible, intriguing and confident in her speech. She taught us about the history of perfume, where the word originated from, which ancient civilisations utilised it and what it meant for such cultures back then. She also explained her backstory which was fascinating on its own! She had our attention the entire time and was very patient and gentle with us. We all made such great perfumes! I'm very pleased with my experience, and so is my boyfriend. I'd definitely recommend this to my friends, it's a one-of-a time experience. Thank you Louella
- Nikki & Tom.
Fayaaz Hajiani • Apr 2023

It's a great class. The teacher was knowledgeable and patient! She helped my with 4 iterations and stayed back to help me finish my perfume. Thank you!
The teacher explained some of the history, anatomy and different types of scents before you go and find the scents you like. She provides tea and biscuits which was very kind.
The time flew by. You get to take home your signature EDT and EDP that you make from scratch.
Looking forward to the next class. Highly recommended.

I just had a wonderful. interesting and inspiring morning at the Naturally Ready studio. Louella from Naturally Ready, is a wonderful and welcoming host. We were made to feel extremely comfortable while learning about the history and science behind scent and perfumes.
We were then able to use our new "knowledge" and creativity to explore scents and design our own unique 'signature' perfume.
I cannot wait to return to create again another day!

Thank you Louella for such an informative and fun event. We had a great time learning how to create perfume. Louella has an extensive knowledge of perfumery and is a great teacher. Louella also goes the extra mile to make sure you are happy with your very own perfume.

Such a great experience! Luella has created a beautiful, intimate studio. We spent the first 30mins getting to know all about perfumery and its different origins from around the world. The rest of the class was spent creating and developing our own fragrances all with naturally sourced florals and herbs. Everyone’s came out so unique! It was so much fun! I can’t recommend this class any more highly. A great idea for a gift or treat for yourself.

This was an outstanding introduction to perfumery. The historical and scientific anecdotes and a very knowledgeable (and patient) teacher made this a wonderful experience.

Louella was beautiful not just with her looks but with her words and her way of teaching. She made the whole process both theoretical and practical workshop so enjoyable. Definitely will be coming back to make some more beautiful scents. Loved her work! Thank you for all the hard work into making our days.

Todays class was so amazing! Education and entertainment in equal parts. Our teacher Louella guided us with humour and passion, making sure everyone’s needs were met! I came with the intention of making a personalized scent for my BNB and she helped in so many ways. I will be back for more for sure! Joyous experience.

This was a truly wonderful experience from start to finish!
Firstly, the quality of the ingredients used in this class was exceptional. It was obvious from the outset that the teacher took great care in sourcing the finest, most natural and organic ingredients available. This not only ensured that our end products were of the highest quality, but also made the whole experience so much more enjoyable as we were able to smell and experiment with such beautiful scents.
Their knowledge of perfume making was truly impressive. They clearly had a deep understanding of the art and science of fragrance and were able to share this knowledge with us in a clear and concise way. They were patient and supportive throughout the class, answering all of our questions and providing us with valuable insights into the process.
One of the things I loved most about this class was the range of interesting topics we covered. From the history of perfume making to the art of blending and the different fragrance families, there was so much to learn and explore. I came away from the class with a newfound appreciation for the complexity and beauty of fragrance and a greater understanding of how to create my own unique scents.
And finally, the end product was absolutely perfect. Thanks to the teacher's guidance and expertise, I was able to create a perfume that was truly my own, with a scent that perfectly captured my personality and style. I have received so many compliments on my perfume since the class, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from such a talented and inspiring teacher.
I cannot recommend this natural perfume making class highly enough. It was a truly wonderful experience, and one that I will always treasure as a Valentines gift to my girlfriend. Thank you so much for such a fantastic class!

I absolutely loved this class. The teacher was so informative and friendly and gave some really illuminating insights into the history and science of perfume and perfume construction ! She took her time to explain everything in detail and to customise my scent to my personality and preferences ! I came out with a new found understanding and appreciation of perfume and was so ecstatic with the end product which was so ‘me’ ! Impressive variety of scents to choose from! I highly recommend
