Cool and unique experience - I had a lot of fun at this workshop. I went alone and the group including staff and other attendees were so nice and friendly. The overall vibe was really positive. We constantly got something to drink and a few snacks. I would definitely recommend this Workshop.

We had a great time - Awesome experience. Met met our guides and the rest of our group near the train station and rode the train to the Asia side of Istanbul then walked to the location. Our guides were very knowledgeable about the scents and process and gave very clear instructions and guidance. They also let us make multiple bottles of perfume while we were there which was cool. They also provided snack and refreshment so that was nice as well.

Wonderful experience -- very highly recommended - Lovely experience for the whole family. They talked us through how to choose from 60+ scents to make our own personalised perfume to take away. Tea, coffee and water provided. Lovely welcoming staff with perfect English. A short walk from the ferry. Our six-year-old daughter loved it as much as we did.

Wonderful! - Highlight of our day. The workshop was educational and we learned a lot. The hosts were fun and had a cool way of explaining the theory. They helped us mix the essential oils in order for them to work together according to their ph levels and overall combination. We had a great time and we left with a precious memory.
