The workshop was a fun and unique experience. The background of the guide was incredible, and the insights offered about the history of perfumery as well as the chemistry behind perfumery were well-explained and interesting to learn about. It was creative, hands-on, and the process was simple to follow and very engaging. After the 2 hours, both my children had beautiful custom perfumes and the satisfaction of a job well done. Highly recommend!

Full description

Imagine a fragrance as unique as you are. Candora is a French brand fully dedicated to customized fragrances offering a tailor-made fragrance creation through the blending of 2 or 3 fragrances amongst a collection of 26. You are invited to learn the art of blending and have the pleasure of creating your own personal fragrance. Men and women, adults and children above 10 years of age will all be able to create the fragrance/cologne which corresponds to their tastes.

Embark on a sensational olfactive journey in a friendly atmosphere. Get introduced to French 'Art de Vivre' and Parisian elegance. Start with an instructive quiz, which will unveil parts of the history of perfumes and the mysteries of fragrance conception.
Then, awaken your senses and emotions with the power of smelling as each guest will be able to smell around 12 different fragrances. Develop your creativity and choose your favorite fragrances and then blend them in a graduated glass.
Learn to adapt the quantity of each ingredient to your taste and find out if you are Oud-Rose, Lavender-Vetiver, or Iris-Cedar-Wild Herbs. Take home your hand-made fragrance in a perfume bottle as a one-of-a-kind memory of your time in Paris.
