What To Expect
Design your very own signature perfume in a bright, spacious street-level studio near Galata Tower. No previous experience or knowledge of perfumery is required — your instructor guides you through every step, from learning the basics of fragrance to bottling your finished creation. Explore over 90 premium essences — one of the widest selections in Istanbul — discovering fresh and citrusy, sweet and warm, woody and spicy, floral, or unisex combinations until you find the blend that feels like you. Your chosen formula is mixed on a magnetic stirrer, then bottled at a 25% fragrance concentration (one of the highest on the market) in a 50 ml glass bottle, labeled and boxed. A 100 ml upgrade is available on request for an extra fee. Throughout the workshop, you'll be treated to fresh Turkish tea and Turkish delight. The workshop takes about 1–1.5 hours, giving you a completely personal, same-day fragrance that's entirely your own.
