Harrogate Perfume Making

“Just like men, perfume is never perfect right away; you have to let it seduce you”-Jean Patou

Harrogate Perfume Making is a great idea for a Hen Party activity. It allows all the ladies to create their own unique scent., smell all the different notes until you find the perfect combination of scents to create your new perfume. The instructor will give advice on which notes really go together, and which notes you can find in your favourite perfume, yes ladies you could even try to recreate your favourite perfume.

First your instructor will introduce you to the art of perfumery, they will then go through how to create a perfume, you do this by using a variety of notes, these are the scents that make up the different aspects of each perfume. There are three different types of notes, base, middle and top, you mix from these notes to create your scent.

“No elegance is possible without perfume. It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory.” – Coco Chanel

The top notes are the scents you smell first and fade the quickest, the base notes are the ones that last. So, you need to make sure you like both notes together, you can add as many notes as you would like but try not to use too many as then they can overpower each other. Once you have your perfect combination to use as your scent then you get to invent the name for your scent as well. 

This is were you can really have some fun but remember ladies these all go on a database, so you could reorder your scent if you wanted, which would be lovely reminder of the Hen Weekend. Why not reorder your scent to wear for the wedding and see if the ladies notice you are wearing your own unique perfume made on the Hen Do.
