Spring Perfume Making Class – March 2026
£250.00
Sunday 22nd March | 1:00–3:00pm
Join me, Louise, for an extraordinary perfume creation experience that celebrates balance: between ancient traditions and the future of fragrance, between light and dark, between the timeless art of perfumery and cutting-edge innovation.
As we gather at the spring equinox, that perfect moment of equilibrium, we’ll explore how this balance manifests in modern perfumery. This isn’t just about making a lovely scent; it’s about understanding the science behind why certain aromas transport us to specific memories, and discovering how biotech materials are revolutionising our craft whilst honouring sustainability.

Your Spring Perfume Making Experience
In this spring perfume making class, I’ll share my passion for perfumery’s rich history and how I use scent to tell stories. Stories of Welsh landscapes and ancient Celtic tribes, of childhood memories and archaeological discoveries, and of how traditional perfumery techniques meet today’s innovative biotech materials.
You’ll work with beautiful seasonal materials alongside cutting edge biotech ingredients, finding your own balance between tradition and innovation. From sustainable lab-grown notes, upcycled materials to memory molecules designed to evoke specific emotions, you’ll discover how modern perfumery honours both the age old art and the planet’s future. We’ll explore scents that adapt to your unique skin chemistry, blending the wisdom of centuries with the possibilities of tomorrow.
What’s Included
- A 30ml bottle of your bespoke Eau de Parfum to take home
- Expert guidance throughout your creative process
- Seasonal refreshments
- QR code access to molecular models and detailed material information
- Small group setting (maximum 8 participants) for personalised attention
The Journey
We’ll begin the spring perfume making class with insights into perfumery’s fascinating history and the science of scent and memory. I’ll share how fragrance has told humanity’s story through the ages, before guiding you through creating your unique scent. We’ll use materials specifically selected for the season, and to represent the theme of balance.
