At Funbooker, we go out of our way to find you the best experiences to enjoy in Paris. Discover our guide to the best workshops for creating your own bespoke perfume in Paris.

Molinard

An iconic family house from Grasse, Molinard has been passing on its know-how since 1849. In Paris, at its boutique near Odéon, the workshop immerses you in the art of composing a bespoke fragrance.

Over around 1h30, you'll discover the architecture of a perfume, try your hand at a perfumer's gestures and compose your own creation from 90 essences. The workshop includes a 50 ml bottle of your personal fragrance.

Galimard

Step into the spellbinding world of perfumery with an immersive workshop. Seated at a perfumer's organ with 126 olfactory notes, you'll be guided step by step to compose a fragrance that truly reflects you.

Friendly and accessible from age 8, this activity brings out the creativity of young and old alike. You'll leave with a personalised bottle of your bespoke perfume and a student perfumer's diploma.

Seeds of Scent

Immerse yourself in the world of perfumery with Seeds of Scent, an intimate workshop led by Gauri, an expert who has spent her whole career in the field. You'll discover the basics of olfactory composition and explore a palette of refined ingredients.

Over the course of the experience, you'll learn to build harmonious accords, then make your own Eau de Parfum. The workshop includes a 50 ml bottle, two 5 ml samples and your personal formula card.

Candora

Tucked away in the Marais, Candora offers an immersive two-hour workshop to compose a one-of-a-kind perfume. Its collection of 21 essences lets you test, compare and blend your favourite notes.

The experience starts with a fun quiz, followed by a discovery of the olfactory families. You then create your own personal fragrance (50 ml bottle included), with the formula saved so you can recreate it at any time.

Fragonard / Le Musée du Parfum

Since 1926, Fragonard has been introducing young and old alike to the secrets of perfumery. In Paris as in Grasse, its “apprentice perfumer” workshops let you discover olfactory composition and create your own Eau de Cologne.

Over 1h30, you'll explore the raw materials, learn the olfactory pyramid and make a perfume with citrus and orange blossom notes. You'll leave with a 100 ml bottle, a diploma and an apprentice's apron.

Le Studio des Parfums

In the heart of the Marais, Le Studio des Parfums invites everyone to design a fragrance that reflects who they are. The workshop offers more than 100 essences to imagine a personalised perfume, with the formula carefully kept so it can be remade at will.

The house also runs scented candle workshops for a change of pace. An intimate, creative experience that appeals to the curious and perfume enthusiasts alike.

Cinquième Sens

Founded by Isabelle Ferrand, Cinquième Sens is one of the most respected places to discover the world of fragrance. In this 3-hour workshop, you'll learn the basics of the perfumer-creator's craft and train your nose with fun exercises.

You'll compose your own fragrance from 19 olfactory facets, then leave with a 30 ml bottle and a sample. As an option, an Olfactorium lets you extend the experience at home.

Emanezsens

With Emanezsens, children discover the craft of perfumery through interactive workshops. Designed as a genuine perfumery school day, these unique experiences combine learning with olfactory creativity.

In a parent-child duo, you'll explore your sense of smell with an ENT specialist, hunt down scents, try out raw-material extraction and formulate a perfume. Each participant leaves with a personalised 15 ml bottle.

Lili Candle

Unlike traditional perfume workshops, Lili Candle immerses you in the world of scented candles. Over 1h to 1h30, you choose an original style – gourmand, colourful cocktail or pastel.

You combine floral scents, colours and small wax decorations to create a unique handmade candle. More than just a perfume, you leave with a unique decorative and olfactory object.
