A bit like wine tasting for your nose, these smelling sessions invite you to discover the wonderful world of smell.
Together, we’ll smell around 20 raw materials and perfumes from different fragrance families, from fresh citrus to deep woods, and learn how perfumers use them to build fragrances. Along the way, you’ll discover which fragrance families you enjoy most, and how to identify perfume notes when reading or smelling a scent.
At the end, you’ll take home a ceramic disc scented with your favourite materials or perfume, a keepsake infused with your new olfactory discoveries.
No experience is needed. Like music or food, you don’t need to be a professional to enjoy and explore. The aim is to expand your scent vocabulary, connect with scent memories, and find out which fragrance profiles speak to you.
Along the way, you’ll learn:
- The names and families of key fragrance notes
- How to describe what you smell
- Where you might encounter these scents (perfume, candles, body care, nature)
We’ll keep things light, fun, and immersive. You’ll leave with a sharper nose, a new way of experiencing the world around you, and 15% off the Mabelle O’Rama perfume collection.
Refreshments (tea, coffee, water) are provided.
Bonus: Studies show olfactory training not only improves your ability to identify scents but can also boost memory and brain health.
