Featured Experience
Experience the 800-year-old Mukabele ceremony at Kasımpaşa Mevlevihanesi. Istanbul's hidden Mevlevi lodge, founded in the 1620s.
Place was lovely. The guys there make you feel appreciated and like at home. Definitely I highly recommend the experience. About the workshop, it teaches you a lot about perfume basic essences, composition, and also principles for formulation. Once there, you discover a lot of interesting people from different nationalities and cultures. Don’t waste the opportunity of having an unforgettable experience.Mustafa war sehr zuvorkommend und nett. Er hatte reichlich Erfahrung und war sehr ausführlich. Wir würden diese Workshop gerne wiederholen wenn wieder der Mustafa uns betreut👍🏼Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Yachtfahrt und waren rundum begeistert. Das Essen war gut und ausreichend. Die Unterhaltung an Bord war abwechslungsreich und hat für eine tolle Stimmung gesorgt. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir unseren Kellner Yunus Emre. Er war äußerst freundlich, aufmerksam und professionell. Mit seiner herzlichen Art hat er dafür gesorgt, dass wir uns jederzeit wohl und willkommen gefühlt haben. Sein Service war erstklassig und hat unsere Erfahrung an Bord noch angenehmer gemacht. Wir können diese Yachtfahrt uneingeschränkt empfehlen und freuen uns schon auf das nächste Mal. Vielen Dank an das gesamte Team.I loved this activity so much! 👍👍👍 Turkey is already a major transportation hub, and spices are also a part of the culture. It's really satisfying to be able to personally create a perfume and then take it away with you. There are many options. In the past, I couldn't tell what scent was what when I smelled perfumes, but now I finally understand. And the young man was very professional, his explanation was very clear and detailed, and his English was also very good. He could make people understand the formula for blending perfumes right away. The most amazing thing is that he knew how to blend it just by smelling it and suggested the right proportions. In the end, the product was amazing. It was really fun. (And it gave me a chance to go to the Asian part of Istanbul. You should definitely try it.)
The workshop was on the Asian Side in Uskudar. The gentleman teaching us different scent pairings was very knowledgeable. Great experience would recommend 100%Der Veranstaltungsort ist recht abgelegen, am besten mit Uber zu erreichen. Der Saal ist hübsch, es gibt nicht viele Plätze, sodass man sehr nah am geschehen ist. Zunächst erfolgte eine Erklärung der Zeremonie auf Englisch und Türkisch, dann die eigentliche Zeremonie. Diese war für Touristen ohne spirituellen Hintergrund nur mäßig interessant: die Derwische laufen langsam umher, verbeugen sich mehrfach und drehen sich zur Musik im Kreis - mehr passiert nicht. Kann man sich anschauen, ist aber kein Muss.
