Masterclass - create your own woody perfume
Perfume-making masterclass: The woody edition
During this exclusive Perfume Lounge Masterclass, we invite you into our beautifully renovated boutique, where a carefully curated mix of wood elements brings warmth, calm, and character to the space. An environment that perfectly reflects the theme of this session: wood.
Create your own woody perfume
In an intimate group of no more than six participants, we dive into the world of woody notes and guide you through the creation of your own personal woody fragrance. Like wood itself, scent is layered and multifaceted: robust yet refined, powerful yet soft. These contrasts also lie at the heart of Perfume Lounge.
Together, we explore the rich spectrum of woods: from dry and smoky to creamy, earthy, and warm. Think of notes such as cedarwood, sandalwood, and palo santo, and discover how they enhance and balance one another in a harmonious composition.
With expert guidance, you’ll learn how woody accords are built, how to balance depth and transparency, and how to translate your personal scent preferences into a unique fragrance. You’ll train your nose, experiment with raw materials, and experience how scent and space can amplify each other. Will we see you there?
What you’ll take home:
- Your own handcrafted woody perfume
- New insights into woody notes and perfume composition
This masterclass is suitable for curious beginners as well as fragrance lovers looking to deepen their perfume journey. A sensory encounter between scent, wood, and identity: warm, layered, and versatile.

Woody
Woody fragrances are full of character and indeed very woodsy. They can be warm, soothing and creamy, but also dry and spicy. Key ingredients are cedar wood, patchouli, sandalwood and/or vetiver. Oudh (agarwood), Palo Santo and guaiac wood have also joined the perfumer's palet, just like the fantastic synthetics such as Javanol or Iso-E-Super.
