Scent & Emotion: Create Your Own Perfume

Discover perfume making at Scents Design Studio in Amsterdam — perfumer creators of an exclusive collection of 30 fragrances with emotional benefits. Receive a personalized luxury bottle with your own label, along with exclusive backstage stories of perfumery that only perfumers can share.

Scents Design Studio is led by an artisan perfumer, certified in aromatherapy and aromachology. We craft perfumes for brands that believe in the deep connection between scent and emotion.

In this immersive 3-hour workshop designed to awaken your senses, you will delve deeply into the art of fragrance making with an artisan perfumer with over 20 years of experience (member of the French Society of Perfumers), this experience blends the beauty of fine perfumery with the emotional resonance of scent. Whether you're seeking stillness, self-expression, or simply something meaningful to do in Amsterdam, this workshop offers a deeply personal creative escape.

Craft a perfume that not only smells good, but also supports your mind and emotions.

1. Discovering the Emotional Language of Scent We begin by gently introducing the foundations of fragrance — top, heart, and base notes — and how these layers evoke mood, memories, and emotional tones. You’ll explore high-quality ingredients, taking time to notice what each evokes in you. This isn’t just about what smells good — it’s about what feels right.

2. Translating Emotion Into Scent

Guided by personal reflection, you’ll begin composing your own perfume — one that speaks to a memory, a moment, or simply a feeling you'd like to carry with you. This process is intuitive, creative, and grounding, offering a unique way to connect scent with emotion.

3. Finalizing & Bottling Your Creation

Once your formula is complete, you’ll label your custom 30ml fragrance bottle — a scent that is uniquely yours, and a reminder of the moment you created it.

This workshop is a joyful and enriching experience, open to all — couples, friends, families, or colleagues — who wish to share a special moment. Whether you're a fragrance enthusiast, a curious mind, or simply looking to slow down and reconnect, you'll discover the art of perfume making in our Lab in a relaxed, intimate, and creative atmosphere. It's also a perfect gift idea for your loved ones❤️

Our artisan perfumer, trained in Paris and with experience at leading fragrance houses, will share stories about the creation of iconic perfumes.
