FAQ

GENERAL 

 

How many different perfumes can I make?

Our workshops allow you to make up to three different perfumes and select the one that you like the most to bottle!

What if I am sensitive to perfume?

The intent behind making a perfume is to explore and engage deeply with fragrance, so if fragrance is a trigger for any health issues, you would not be a suitable candidate for participation and we would advise you to sit this one out. We do not cater towards sensitivities or make light fragrances. 

How do I reschedule my workshop? 

Your workshop can be rescheduled, as a one-time courtesy, at no cost up to 72 hours before it’s scheduled start time, by emailing us the name on your reservation and the new date/time that you would like to attend the workshop. If it is less than 72 hours before the start of the workshop or you are rescheduling the workshop again, you will be charged a $25 rescheduling fee per person (2 people = $50) for a public workshop or a $250 rescheduling flat fee for a private workshop. 

Individuals who are unable to attend a private group workshop will not be able to reschedule independently of the group or have perfumes made for them in their absence.

Missed workshops are counted as no-shows, must be rebooked at the full price and cannot be rescheduled. 

I'm interested in studying perfumery.

While we do share information about the aromas used in the workshop, the information is not comprehensive enough to satisfy the curriculum you would need to pursue a career in perfumery. 

I'd like to create my own perfume brand.

If you are looking to create your own line of fragrances, our workshop would be a great experience to help you discover the types of notes that you prefer before finding a perfumer and manufacturer to help you create your professional line of fragrances. 

What is the workshop like?

You'll get a fun crash course on how scents are crafted and have a chance to sniff a variety of delightful aromas while discovering the magic behind each note. Create your unique perfume formula, whip up some samples, and test them on your skin. Once you find your favorite, you'll mix and bottle your 10 ml masterpiece.

Are the workshops suitable for men?

Yes! The aromas we provide can be combined in a way that is suitable for all genders. 

What is the minimum age for participation?

The participants must be at least 12 years old. All participants between the ages of 12 and 17 must be accompanied by a participating adult.

Are food and drinks allowed? 

To avoid contamination issues, food and drinks (except water) are not permitted in our workspace.

What kind of aromas do you offer?

We offer aromas from many different fragrance families, such as the floral, woody, citrus, fruity, gourmand, spicy, herbal, green, tobacco, marine and musky-animalic families. The aromas we provide are appreciated by all genders. Your finished perfume formula will be an EDP (eau de parfum) strength. All of our perfumes contain alcohol. 

 

MIAMI WORKSHOPS

 

 

Where do the Miami workshops take place?

Work & Co.
2915 Biscayne Blvd
Miami, FL 33137
Near Wynwood and the Design District 

Do you offer private events in Miami?

We host workshops on Saturdays only. While we do not offer private workshops, you can make a public Saturday workshop private by finding a date with 12 available spots and booking all 12 spots. 

Where do we park for the Miami workshop?

All parking is either paid street parking. You can use the local parking app to pay using your phone or credit card. There is no dedicated lot for customer parking. Be sure to read the signs carefully.  

Are animals allowed into the workshop?

Due to the nature of the workshop and the materials that we work with, we cannot permit any animals into the space. We understand the importance of emotional support animals and service animals and the value that they add to one’s life, but a perfume making workshop isn’t the most accommodating environment for them, due to safety concerns. Showing up to a workshop with an animal, will lead to the forfeiture of your non-refundable reservation. 

 

PERFUME MAKING KITS

Can two people share a kit?

Kits are made for use by one person. If you have more than one person who would like to make a custom perfume using one of our kits, we recommend purchasing a kit for each participant. 

 How do I store my kit?

Unopened kits should be stored in a cool place (away from direct sunlight) and used within 6 months. Once the aroma bottles have been opened, use the aromas within 4 weeks and be sure to keep the tops securely closed and stored under the same conditions as the unopened kits. 

How do I make a perfume?

Each kit comes with access to an on-demand instruction video!

• Select Your Notes: Choose the fragrance notes that resonate with you the most.
• Determine Your Ratios: Decide the percentage of each note to create a balanced or dominant scent.
• Blend and Test: Mix your chosen notes, test the blend, and adjust until you find your signature scent.

Are the kits suitable for all genders?

Yes! The aromas we provide can be combined in a way that is suitable for all genders. We do provide information regarding gender for each kit on the product page under the tab named, "Which gender is this kit for?". 

We are of the belief that every kit can work for every gender. Our rating is based on gender associations of the aromas in each kit. An example would be how blue is associated with boys and pink is associated with girls. These associations do not prohibit girls from wearing blue and boys from wearing pink; they are merely traditional associations which may influence people with traditional mindsets. 

Is there a minimum age?

We find that 12 and up seems to work well. In cases where a child learns easily or is quite advanced for their age, they may be well suited to use the kit even if they are a bit younger than 12 years old. We recommend adult supervision if children are involved. 

Why choose a perfume making kit?

Personalized Experience: Unlike ready-made perfumes, you control the scent from start to finish. Tailor each note to match your unique preferences.

Creative, Fun & Educational: Experimenting with different notes and blends is not only fun but also a great way to express your creativity. Learn about the art of perfumery, understanding how different notes interact and complement each other.

Convenient: No need to scour the internet desperately searching for a perfume making workshop in your city, then having to deal with schedule conflicts, traffic and difficult parking. Our kits come to your doorstep!

Share the Experience: Enjoy this activity with a friend, partner, or family member. Buy a kit for each person and share the joy of creating something special together.
