Fragrance Preference

Why does our fragrance preference differ?

Fundamentally we don't all perceive the same smell in the same way. This is not just our interpretation; our noses actually behave differently. This and many other fundamental concepts can be explored, using the raw materials of the Perfumer.

This aspect of Perfume Training offers the individual a wealth of information to understand the fundamentals of smell and select fragrances for others and themselves.

Fragrance Language

Green, aldehydic, fougere, chypre - what do they mean, how do you pronounce them!?

Odour language, and the communication of the smell of a perfume are notoriously difficult. Journey through simple smells and complex ones; discuss them, gain knowledge and dispel a few myths.
