The Art of Natural Perfume
A workshop facilitated by Carmen Rose Perfumery
Join perfumer Carmen Rose for an intimate, hands-on workshop exploring the practice and alchemy of natural perfumery. Guided by scent, story, and botanical intuition, you’ll create your own personal blend using pure, natural materials.
In these immersive workshops, participants explore the profound connection between scent and memory while learning the fundamentals of fragrance composition. Under Carmen's guidance, students learn to structure a perfume through hands-on experimentation with botanical ingredients, crafting a sophisticated personal scent that reflects their inner world. Each participant emerges with a deeper understanding of natural perfumery and their own hand-blended perfume.

Meet Carmen Rose
Carmen Rose is an olfactory artist who uses scent to celebrate, honor, and eulogize the people and places that move her. Working with a palette of pure botanical ingredients—seeds, fruit essences, flowers, bark, fossilized resins, leaves, grasses, mosses, roots, and minerals—she creates invisible portraits that capture the essence of people, places, and ideas beyond the visual realm.
To complement her olfactory art, Carmen has studied natural perfumery for many years, including with Mandy Aftel of Aftelier, one of the preeminent and most respected natural perfumers of our age.
