Question 1

Do we use naturals ingredients?

Accepted Answer

As much as possible, we always prefer to use high quality natural components. By chance, Indonesia is one of the biggest suppliers of natural raw materials for the Perfume industry.  Sometimes, and only when natural products are not available, we need to create blends using a combination of naturals, synthetics and natural isolate molecules to reproduce the smell of an individual ingredient or an olfactory impression.  We respect that some of our customers prefer to use only natural products. We remain transparent about which ones are naturals and which ones are not: You have the full control of your organ for you to use them or not.

Question 2

Can I create a perfume for commercial purpose?

Accepted Answer

The core purpose of our activity is to offer custom sensory experiences for our guests to immerse themselves in the shoes or a real perfumer. The result is a one-of-a-kind creation they can proudly wear. A product development for commercial (mass consumption) is a long process (in months) that does not match our purpose.  It is still possible for you to make your own creation and use it as a wedding favor or corporate gift by ordering a larger amount. We propose discounted prices with minimum order purchases. Please contact us to discuss this matter.

Question 4

Can I use your certificate for professional purposes?

Accepted Answer

No, the certificate you receive at the end of your workshop is a souvenir of the time spent with us. We are not a training institution or a school.  It requires many years of learning and experiencing with formulation to become a Perfumer. We aim to unveil the mysteries surrounding the perfumery world and industry by using objective facts and perfumery science. We crafted different experiences for individuals to be in the shoes of a perfumer and create a one-of-a-kind creation.

Yes! During our workshops, we formulate in Perfume alcohol. We offer to adapt your fragrance into perfume jojoba oil based, body lotion or shower gel. We have to adapt the formulation to be stable in emulsion and oils. This is not a process you can do by yourself.

Question 11

Do you have Coffee beans in your studios to reset our nose?

Accepted Answer

This myth has been around for so long that it is almost impossible to find a fragrance store without coffee beans. You will not find coffee beans in our studios. With a bit of training you could keep smelling for hours. We understand it can be overwhelming at first to smell so many different fragrances. But smelling coffee beans is just adding an extra smell. You don’t need more confusion. To deal with an olfactory fatigue, you can either smell your own skin (inside your elbow for example) or take a short break by stepping outside for fresh air.
