Another 5-Day Workshop

"The Art & Technology of Perfumery"

New York City, May 11-15, 2015

British perfumer Stephen V. Dowthwaite is coming to the U.S. once again to present a 5-Day Perfumery Workshop in New York City -- "The Art & Technology of Perfumery."
Notice the emphasis on technology. This isn't about learning to recognize today's most popular perfumes. This isn't about wine and crackers. It is about developing creative skills backed by technical knowledge -- the knowledge that allows you to translate your creative vision into perfume.

No random mixing here. No settling for a beautiful scent that is NOT the beautiful scent you set out to create. This is goal orientated perfumery -- professional perfumery. This is a chance to learn to make perfume using the same techniques professional perfumers use for multi-national clients. Yes, as a student your first creations will be a little rough around the edges but, if you are motivated, this workshop can be the beginning of your journey into perfume.

No prior experience is required. All materials (100's!) are provided with your enrollment.

Details here. Don't miss it!

If you want to attend, contact me for discount information.

If you miss this workshop, follow the postings on the PerfumersWorld website for their next workshop (although it is not likely to be in the U.S.)
