Perfume Making Class in Alpharetta: Create Your Custom EDP

You'll learn how fragrance chemistry works while blending your own signature scent.

A 2-hour perfume making class in Alpharetta where you blend a custom 30ml Eau de Parfum from professional-grade perfumer's notes under the guidance of a scent expert. You choose from citrus, florals, spices and woods to create a fragrance that matches your style, and the class covers how to wear, store and shop for perfumes confidently. All blending materials are included. You take home the bottle you made.

The experience

The class starts with the raw materials: a curated selection of professional-grade perfumer's notes in vibrant citrus, lush florals, exotic spices, and rich woods. A scent expert walks you through how fragrance is built, the chemistry behind why some scents last longer than others, and how your own skin chemistry affects how a perfume wears. You're not watching a demonstration. You're mixing and testing as you go, building a fragrance that captures your character and mood in a bottle you'll take home.

Over two hours, you'll create a 30ml Eau de Parfum from start to finish. The class also covers current trends in niche perfumery and the practical side: how to build a scent wardrobe, shop for fragrances with confidence, and store them so they stay fresh. If you want to upgrade, the Luxury Package adds a complimentary glass of wine or champagne to enjoy while you work, turning the class into something closer to a social experience.

The workshop is wheelchair accessible and suitable for all fitness levels. Children 12 and older can attend at full price with a paying adult. The minimum age for independent attendance is 16. The space is designed for hands-on work, so come ready to blend.
