Details

Rooted in the acclaimed Slow Scent curriculum developed by Mandy Aftel, these workshops blend sensorial rigor with creative practice. Gathered around the shop’s expansive perfume organ, participants explore the nuances of top, heart, and base notes, learn techniques for blending, and discover how botanical ingredients shape mood, memory, and presence. Each session culminates in the creation of a bespoke fragrance oil — a personal and artistic journey to take home.
