Pre-requisite: Odorata or Chimera
A two-day intensive in all natural perfumery
This two-day intensive is devoted to the art of working with the beauty of natural perfume ingredients. Building on the foundations of Odorata, the course immerses participants in a wide range of botanicals through extended smelling practice, comparative study, and structured blending exercises. Attention is given to learning the unique properties of each material, as well as to the subtleties that emerge in combination. The goal is to strengthen both sensitivity and confidence with naturals as a palette.
Alongside hands-on exploration, the class introduces the frameworks that guide perfumery practice: IFRA standards and other health and safety considerations, methods for handling and measuring raw materials and reflections on the historical formulae and methodologies that continue to inform perfumery today. By weaving together past and present, Naturalis offers a rigorous and sensorially rich foundation for developing one’s own approach to natural perfumery.
