About this Event
Welcome to The Scent Vault
We’re opening the fragrance library for a hands-on candle-making experience centered around creativity, fragrance, and a little experimentation.
During this class, you’ll create your own custom-scented candle using a curated collection of fragrance oils from our Scent Vault. Some fragrances are longtime favorites, while others are limited-library scents that may not return once they’re gone.
You won’t have to smell every bottle on the table to figure out where to begin. You’ll receive a fragrance menu highlighting the scents available during your session and their primary fragrance notes so you can narrow down what catches your attention first.
Once you have a few favorites, it’s time to experiment.
At our fragrance drop-test station, you’ll be able to test combinations in small amounts before committing to your final candle blend. Mix, adjust, soften, strengthen, and find the combination that smells right to you.
Then we’ll walk you through measuring your final fragrance blend and pouring your candle.
No previous candle-making experience is required.

Additional candles may be made for $25 each.
If you choose a specialty vessel for an additional candle, the applicable vessel upgrade will be added to the $25 additional-candle price.
Specialty vessels are optional and availability will vary.
Class size
The September 26 experience is intentionally limited to 8 participants per class.
Keeping the first sessions small gives everyone space to work with the fragrances, experiment with their blend, pour their candle, and receive hands-on instruction throughout the experience.
Age requirement
This candle-making experience is open to guests ages 12 and up.
Participants ages 12–17 must attend with a participating, ticketed adult.
We do not offer spectator or supervision-only seating. Every person attending the class must be a registered participant with their own ticket.
Participants will be working with warm wax and candle-making equipment and are expected to follow instructor safety directions throughout the class.
Important fragrance note
Because The Scent Vault features a rotating fragrance collection, the exact fragrances available may vary from class to class.
Some scents featured during your experience are limited-library fragrances and may not be offered again once the remaining supply is gone.
That’s part of the fun: you may leave with a fragrance combination that can’t be recreated exactly the same way again.
