Continue fine-tuning your perfume's structure by balancing top, heart, and base notes with guided support to ensure your final perfume smells exactly how you want it.


Create your own signature perfume in this hands-on, 50-minute class at an intimate speakeasy-style studio in Costa Mesa. This workshop is designed for beginners, creatives, and anyone curious about how fragrance comes together.
You'll learn the basics of perfume and fragrance structure while smelling a curated set of accords, then mix them to your liking until the scent feels like you. Step-by-step guidance means no experience is needed.
You'll leave with your own eau de parfum (15-20% concentration) in your choice of a 15 ml spray bottle or a 10 ml roller oil. The oil bottle holds a little less because oil weighs more than alcohol.
Optional upgrade: The Vanity, a 15 ml oil with a glass dabber and an included 5ml roller, for $30 when added in advance or $40 at your appointment. Spray upgrade coming soon.
Perfect for those who prefer an intimate setting.
What you'll get
Classic Pour - Choice of 10ml oil* or 15ml spray
(Optional upgrade to the Icon or Vanity bottle)
Private Reserve - 30ml spray in the Icon bottle or 15ml oil* in the Vanity glass dabber + 5ml roller
Travel-size companion
Perfumer's notebook and pen
*Oil is heavier than alcohol and evaporates slower. Either size will last you the same amount of time.

female Women-owned

I design creative, sensory experiences that help people connect through scent. As the founder of Eau’dacity, I guide guests through approachable, hands-on perfumery sessions using professional ingredients and clear instruction. My background blends culinary arts, instructional design, and experience strategy, which means I teach fragrance in a way that feels structured, welcoming, and easy to understand. My goal is simple: help people create something personal and joyful, one scent at a time.
Beyond perfumery, my work has included designing educational programs, producing mixed-reality events, and creating interactive content for digital communities. I have spoken at Northwestern University, taught older adults how to navigate technology with confidence, taught cooking and writing classes, and founded the first all-women VR esports team. These experiences shape how I design workshops that feel thoughtful, accessible, and creative.
