Perfumery Class | Jasmine Accord
Students will learn the art of blending a Jasmine accord. The intoxicating scent of Jasmine has been used in perfumery by cultures around the world since ancient times and is an essential ingredient for any perfumer. Learning to recreate it accurately will allow students to create rich, complex perfumes.
Creating accords allow perfumers a way to simulate rare materials, imitate notes that cannot be extracted, or replace ingredients too environmentally or financially costly to use. They also offer perfumers a way to push or pull their recreations based on their preferences or artistic goals.
In this hands-on class, we will work with both synthetic and natural materials. Each material will be evaluated, and we will discuss its contribution to the formulation. We will then blend them to create a simple rose scent. Each student will also have the opportunity to use modifiers to shift their accord based on personal preferences.
At the end of class, every student will be able to take their rose accord home along with the materials kits received at the beginning of class.
