It was just fair- there was no history of perfume on France, no videos with a background. We ;earned the name of the instructor and that was it- not about the person or the store or their qualifications. Workshop was in french and English (only 3 people) and to be fair, that was not easy nor enjoyable to me- the only English speaker. They should separate by language. You basically smell 20 of each type of product- top, middle and end notes (and select 6 to 8 favorites of each), which was fine and then the instructor does the ratio calculation after a few brief questions. Then you are basically following a recipe. It is a bit hard to use a beaker that is not raised up to see it better... the final bottle did create a nice scent but this was a 60 Euro workshop, not 140. I would like to find a better place and have the true lecture and experience I was hoping for.

I’m not sure if our teacher was a chemist or a botanist! However, everyone loves the scents that my daughter and I created!!! The limited English of our instructor was noticeably but we had a great time anyway!!!

I paid about 210 CAD for 2 hours thinking it would be an experience of learning more about perfume creation. The session included a brief explanation about perfumery (base notes, middle notes, top notes), the group (3 people) was mixed English and French, so the employees had to say everything in French and then in English, while my experience was clearly marked to be in English. There was another group speaking English but they were separate and came later. Organizationally, it should have been planned much better and more efficient. I had 50 ml paid for and all others (my group and the second English-speaking 3 people) had 30 ml paid for. The experience included us smelling a large number of bottles for each level of perfume, while we were passing about 100 bottles to each other it was timed by the employee - you had to complete each round (base, middle and top notes) within 10-15 minutes for 3 people, which makes about 10 sec for a bottle! When that was done, the Perfumer of the house went through the sents on the lists of each participant and determined the quantity of each to be included in your formula. I was the last, hence I had the least amount of time to mix my perfume while I had the biggest quantity to mix. Again, organizationally, I should have been the first to be reviewed, so I would have more time to mix. The employees were very nice, and professional and asked what perfumes I normally wear (Chanel, Givenchy, Alexander McQueen) and that is the only reason I gave 3 starts and not 1 start to this experience. I had to stay 15 minutes longer to finish mixing while I was racing to do it as fast as I could because I felt uncomfortable going over the time limit of 2 hours. Frankly, for the amount of money I paid for 2 hours, it should have been a private or 2 people at most session in order to actually enjoy the experience. There were certain ingredients I was looking forward to including in my formula such as Mint, a replacement of celery seeds, musk, or oakmoss; they didn't have these while mint and musk are pretty standard ingredients. Result: I left feeling dizzy from all the race and smells, I couldn't any longer determine if I liked the smell or not and what kind of perfume I left with; now, when I had a couple of days to evaluate the perfume, it smells way to powdery and heavy for me and should I had more time, that would be avoided by simply changing the quantities of the ingredients in the formula. To summarize, the organization of the session was not thought through by the operator and the value for the money was not good either. I wish I had chosen a different operator for my unique Paris perfume creation session.

My husband and I are visiting Paris for our anniversary. We just had our first perfume/cologne making experience with Sophie at Le Studio des Parfum. It's a clean and inviting studio with 2 workshop areas. One for French speakers and one for English (us)! Sophie was very, friendly, patient and very knowledgeable. She helped us understand the different notes and how important they are when creating a fragrance. She also helped all of us by suggesting notes to add to bring out what we were going for! This was such a unique experience, and I would definitely recommend it!

Woman spent most of the time with the room who had French spoken people in rather than English. Hated my perfume it smells like cat p*** is not worth the money! Honestly just buy yourself your favourite bottle of perfume and save yourself the money and disappointment. You weren’t allowed too add everything you wanted to it either.
