essential oil & aromatic
ESSENTIAL OIL & AROMATICS IS A GUIDED SENSORY EXPERIENCE INTO THE WORLD OF NATURAL AROMATIC MATERIALS. THROUGH SCENT, BOTANICAL KNOWLEDGE AND HANDS-ON EXPLORATION, PARTICIPANTS DISCOVER HOW ESSENTIAL OILS ARE PRODUCED, EXPERIENCE THEIR DISTINCTIVE AROMATIC PROFILES, AND LEARN THE FUNDAMENTALS OF CREATING A BALANCED AROMATIC BLEND.
DISCOVER THE WORLD OF AROMATICS
Essential oils capture some of the most distinctive aromatic characteristics found in botanical materials. Yet understanding them goes beyond recognising whether a scent is floral, citrus or woody. This guided experience introduces participants to essential oils through their botanical origins, extraction methods and aromatic characteristics.
Through direct scent exploration, participants learn to observe how different essential oils express themselves individually and how their aromatic characteristics interact when combined.
- Discover how essential oils are obtained from different botanical materials.
- Explore citrus, floral, herbal, woody, resinous and other aromatic families.
- Learn how top, middle and base notes influence an aromatic composition.
- Understand the fundamentals of combining essential oils into a balanced blend.
THE AROMATIC JOURNEY
The experience unfolds through a guided journey of discovery, scent and creation. From exploring individual essential oils to understanding aromatic families and blending principles, each stage encourages participants to engage their sense of smell and discover how different botanical aromas can be brought together into a harmonious composition.
