About this Event
Perfume 101 class serves as an orientation session for newcomers to the field, olfactive adventurers, curious minds, and budding scent enthusiasts who need a little boost.
In this theory-focused introduction to perfumery, participants will learn about perfume basics such as fragrance families and classifications, get an introduction to perfume-making in a lab, and get an introduction to the different kinds of aromatic materials.
As a group, the class will learn the difference between top, middle and bottom notes, what's in a perfume lab, get a brief introduction to perfume math concepts, and more. We'll smell and look at different aromatic materials, useful labware used in blending scents, and more!
Take-Aways:
Participants will leave with the basic knowledge they need to start a journey down the rabbit hole of appreciating and even making scent, as well as a more considered understanding of what they encounter at the fragrance counter.
Registration Required:
Please note that you must reserve your space in advance. If you just show up without reserving a spot, there is no guarantee we will be able to accommodate you.
All levels are welcome, but this session is 18 and up (or 14+, with adult supervision).

CANCELLATION POLICY!
When we host a class or workshop, we often order the materials to be used in the class well in advance, based on how many people have signed up (and padding a bit for safety). We also use class proceeds to pay our teachers. Although we realize that life has a funny way of getting in the way of the best laid plans, as a small non-profit we cannot afford to carry the burden of lost proceeds and materials.
With that in mind, here is our refund policy:
– Cancellation with refund or credit requests made 2 weeks or more (14 days) before the scheduled class will be honored with gusto! We’ll miss you, but will 100% refund your spot, or give you credit for another class.
– Refunds or class credits requested less than 14 days before the scheduled session or after the class has happened: refunds will not be granted. The exception to this, of course, is if you have been exposed to Covid-19, or are feeling symptoms yourself.
- Event tickets are non-transferable.
Thank you!
