I am really excited to be hosting this workshop in the UK for the Perfumer’s World Team for the 8th year running! This year we are running the course at Winchester University which is easy to access from London and has plenty of affordable accommodation options within walking distance.
Workshop price includes lunch every day and refreshments, all materials PLUS a free copy of the fantastic Perfumer’s World Software! (I use this myself and it is invaluable)
The PerfumersWorld Team will present the course
Includes theoretical training sessions Monday to Friday followed by workshops with access to hundreds of commercially available perfumery materials including essential oils, absolutes, isolates, aroma chemicals and specialty key bases. Because these classes form a semi-private tuition format your personal objectives can be targeted very well during the training. An ideal option for those who prefer personal training with a a live instructor. The size of the Master Classes with Workshops is strictly limited, ensuring that each students specific requirements can be catered for.
To learn more about PerfumersWorld, watch the following video:
The workshop is not for the faint hearted, it is very intensive and participants are likely to learn more in 5 full days than they will learn working in a perfumery house for a year or more. Subjects covered will be perfume creation, commercial perfumery, natural perfumery, aromatherapy, spa and lifestyle products.
