DIY PERFUME MASTERCLASSYou may well be someone who cannot go out without first putting perfume on...I know several people like this. Or you may only put it on sometimes and be a novice about knowing anything about perfumes. Whichever one you are, you are sure to enjoy this workshop especially if you like pleasant scents.
The class will be facilitated by Jocelyn Fullerton who take you on a tour through the fabulous world of fragrance and then help you be creative by making your very own perfume.
Jocelyn has a kit of perfumes and ingredients and she will share her secrets about how perfumes are made, the stores behind them and how some precious ingredients are sourced from all over the globe.
Once you have got your palette of smells to work with, you will learn how you can blend the ingredients together to create a perfume. Imagination will help greatly with this part!
Maybe you love the scents of flowers or woods, spices or resins? Maybe you are a foodie and love such smells as chocolate - who doesn't!
You will be given a choice of a large range of fragrance ingredients and these have been specially curated for you to use for this workshop. Jocelyn will then help you with this variety of scents to make your fragrance one of beauty and inspiration.
The class will be on Tuesday 26th February 2019, from 6.30 pm to 9.00 pm at the corner of Cleveland and Eveleigh Streets, Redfern.
