Fantastic morning and brilliant guide!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Our mini perfume making workshop was absolutely brilliant! We began with a short tour of the factory and Sophie, our guide, was really interesting and informative. The workshop was fun and Sophie helped us out with words of advice and encouragement. We finished in the (extensive) shop where she introduced us to lots and lots of perfumes - I defy anyone to not spend money here!!! I have to give Sophie a special mention as she made the day so special! Not only was she knowledgeable and interesting, she also helped us out with information on the local bus service. I wanted to put her in my pocket and take her home!!

Interesting and Fun!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

My husband, my two teenage daughters and I did the tour/workshop. I’m not really into perfume but thought the family would enjoy doing something new and different. I was surprised at how interesting the whole perfume-making process is and how much fun I was having. Our guide was great! Making our own perfume in the workshop was a fun and unique experience. All 4 of us had a blast and my oldest daughter discovered an interest in perfume! I highly recommend!

A Good Experience

Global rating Quality/price Fun

I enjoyed the mini perfume workshop but it could’ve been better. It was the first one I attended so I didn’t have anything to compare it to. I did like the factory tour. I’ve since attended others so in hindsight, I would’ve liked to not feel rushed or like I was being watched the entire time. I would’ve liked more essences to work with. I also would’ve liked to create an eau de parfum instead of an eau de toilette. I felt like I was being given a sales pitch at the end and that I was expected to purchase items. There are other workshops I would recommend before this one.

a transformative experience

The workshop was very interesting, my ten-year-old daughter was so impressed that now she dreams of being a "nose" for work. The young teacher was clear and engaging. no problem either to book or anything else.

The mini perfume making is great value for money and loved the scent that I made. Our guide was very knowledgable and friendly and the fact there was the option to have an English spoken tour was great too. Highly recommend.

Fun time making own parfume

Global rating Quality/price Fun

I did the workshop with my daughter and we both liked it. We both did find the time to make the parfume a little too short. We do understand that it is a mini workshop, however we would have prefered a little more time to try out adding the different notes.

Great experience in the world of parfumes

Global rating Quality/price Fun

I liked mini workshop a lot but I didnt know that the factory is out of town! I didnt know how to get there firstly. I also missed all the workshop. I highly recommend you to write exact instructions for people- how to get to your place without your own car.

The overall experience is good but like we made a toilette, not a perfume.

Global rating Quality/price Fun

The overall experience is good, but it seems like “the perfume” is just a eau de toilette, not a perfume.
