How it works: In about an hour-long class, you'll learn how to balance different scents to make a perfume or cologne you can take home.
First, you'll smell a range of perfume oils before choosing your top, middle and base notes. You'll test a few combinations before mixing the fragrances into a bottle of your choice. Then you'll name and label your new scent.
You can also book private sessions outside of scheduled classes.
