Creating long lasting memories of our Paris trip through personalized scenes. - My college age daughter and myself had a wonderful afternoon at Les studios de perfumes. CONFIRMATION: We used their website to book directly rather than a 3rd person group like TripAdvisor, where they promptly confirmed our reservation as well as sent a reminder email (we originally booked with another perfumer via viator but had no contact, no confirmation, no record of activity thus we assumed they never received our reservation…that’s another story). Les studios was incredibly professional in handling our reservation. OUR EXPERIENCE : Lola, our “nez”, was fabulous. She gave a really interesting detailed explanation as to not only what we were doing but how and why in both French and English as there was another person in our tiny 3 person group who did not speak English. We did not feel rushed or ignored as rated our scents. Lola was also very patient -it took my daughter and I longer to create our perfumes following the recipe Lola created for us based on our scent likes and rankings- than the other person in our group who finished about half an hour early than we did. It was interesting as she thoughtfully asked us questions as she created our personal perfume recipe making sure to balance the base notes, middle and top notes of our unique scents. FINISHING UP: At the end she helped us come up with an interesting name for our perfume, made sure we correctly finished paperwork that would allow us to reorder our creations if we wanted in the future and gave us some very welcomed recommendations of a special cake place and other food recommendations. 5/5 all day long. Our experience creating perfume guided by Lola was amazing and I recommend you do this the first day you are in Paris as you will create a scent that will be tied to your Paris memories. What a great way to start a very exciting mother daughter trip. Thank you Lola!

a memorable experience at the highest point of pleasure - one a priori vis-à-vis all these creative workshops.... incredible experience that combines our emotions, our life and our desires!! I was able to realize a perfume that matches me and that I already love as a signature of my personality. I don't think I'll spray anything else on my skin and I'm almost afraid it'll disappear like a scent... fortunately the secret formula stays at studio and I already want to recommend my perfume when I barely put away my first bottle!!

Unforgettable experience at Le Studio des Parfums! - I celebrated my birthday in Paris, hosting 22 guests at Le Studio des Parfums. The event was a great success; my friends and family loved it and had the opportunity to create their own perfumes to take home as souvenirs. It was an unforgettable experience. Thank you to the organizer.

I smell Great!!! - I’m not sure if our teacher was a chemist or a botanist! However, everyone loves the scents that my daughter and I created!!! The limited English of our instructor was noticeably but we had a great time anyway!!!

TO DO AND REDO ! - This experience, as a duo, was a gift for my best friend, we went as a couple and I have no regrets! The making is done from A to Z, we have acquired lots of new knowledge about perfumes, smells, mixing smells…Etc! I 200% recommend this experience :)

An Olfactory Journey - Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting the Studio des Parfums, and I am absolutely delighted with this experience. Creating my own perfume has been both a unique and fascinating adventure. A big thank you to Patrice and Omar for their expertise and their unparalleled kindness. I highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for a personalized and exceptional olfactory experience.

You can do much better - It was just fair- there was no history of perfume on France, no videos with a background. We ;earned the name of the instructor and that was it- not about the person or the store or their qualifications. Workshop was in french and English (only 3 people) and to be fair, that was not easy nor enjoyable to me- the only English speaker. They should separate by language. You basically smell 20 of each type of product- top, middle and end notes (and select 6 to 8 favorites of each), which was fine and then the instructor does the ratio calculation after a few brief questions. Then you are basically following a recipe. It is a bit hard to use a beaker that is not raised up to see it better... the final bottle did create a nice scent but this was a 60 Euro workshop, not 140. I would like to find a better place and have the true lecture and experience I was hoping for.

Beware. - If I could leave 0 stars I would. If you are driving do not and I mean DO NOT book this. I got to the site an hour early. I called at 4 pm (my booking was at 5) because I couldn’t find parking. So I asked the person where can I park and she says “I can’t help you” I’m like okay then and that was the end of the call. Took me an hour and 9 minutes to find parking which was 20 minutes away. I called at 5:09 pm and ask to see if I could still take the class when I get there in 20 minutes. The same lady says “no the class has started and I won’t be able to catch up.” So I say “ok well it’s not my fault I was here an hour early and whoever picked up the phone said they wouldn’t help me.” She said “ yes that’s me and I can’t help you with parking but I can reschedule you.” Mind you I was in France for 4 days and my days were scheduled. I said no I need a refund. “We can’t do that” and I said but it wasn’t my fault and all she said was “it’s the day of the appointment and we never guaranteed parking” if you check the listing it doesn’t mention anything about parking. It does not say they won’t guarantee it or that it’s even included. True. But they also never mentioned you will not find parking close by. I spent $350 for a class I couldn’t take and won’t get my money back on. Viator was no help either. Just beware.
