For beginners, but all levels are welcome.For the first portion of this smelling and blending session, we will learn about some smells of the season.

Each student will have the opportunity to blend with aromatic materials from the session's selected palette. We will spend the rest of the session experimenting with our own short formulas.Each attendee goes home with a small trial of their aromatic blend.Topics covered:+ introduction to aromatic materials and scent evaluation+ introduction to blending and composing scent+ introduction to expanding formulasTake-Aways:+ vial of chosen scent blendSafety Note:Some aromatic materials can have side effects when applied to skin.

If you just show up without reserving a spot, there is no guarantee we will be able to accommodate you. Seating at this event is limited.All levels are welcome, but this session is 18 and up (or 14+, with adult supervision).When we host a class or workshop, we often order the materials to be used in the class well in advance, based on how many people have signed up (and padding a bit for safety). We also use class proceeds to pay our teachers. Although we realize that life has a funny way of getting in the way of the best laid plans, as a small non-profit we cannot afford to carry the burden of lost proceeds and materials.Note also that event tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable.
