Perfume creation close-up

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — EST. 2019

Fragrance made
personal.

At SF Perfume Workshops, we believe scent is one of the most personal things a person can create. A fragrance can remind you of a place, a season, or someone you love. It can become part of how people remember you.

That's why we built a studio where anyone—not just perfumers—can experience the joy of creating a fragrance from scratch.

Our perfume making workshops in San Francisco are designed to be welcoming, thoughtful, and hands-on. Whether you're joining us for a date, celebrating with friends, planning a private event, or simply curious about fragrance, we'll guide you through the creative process one note at a time.

Every guest leaves with a custom perfume that's entirely their own. No formulas to copy. No experience required. Just your nose, your instincts, and a fragrance you'll never find on a store shelf.

"Some memories are made. Others are bottled."
