Smell your way! - What a fun experience. They are very organized - from the emails, to someone meeting up with you to get you there , to the class itself. Friendly people. Great environment. A fun thing to do. Learn about and you get your own bottle of perfume! I took the steps ahead and looked up a perfume I used to love and what were the scents, so I could try and create something similar. We will see! It has to be in the fridge for 3 days before trying.

A long lasting memory - This perfume-making workshop with Mustafa was such a unique and meaningful experience. It’s hard to find a unique souvenir in Istanbul, but creating a scent tied to your memories of the trip feels incredibly special. Since scent is the closest thing tied to memory. Mustafa was extremely knowledgeable and super helpful at narrowing down a fragrance profile that actually fit me. With so many ingredients to choose from, I could’ve felt overwhelmed, but he made the process feel easy and intuitive. I felt completely at ease the whole time and never rushed.

Smells good in here. - This was good fun. Mustafa explained everything well and obviously knows what he's talking about. He shared his time equally with everyone and we all had a good time. The great perfume houses have nothing to fear from our final products, but they were still quite good for "home made". A great way to spend a couple of hours while on holiday.
