    Ali was a friendly, knowledgeable host who walked us through the basics of perfume making. We sampled various essential oils, learned simple blending techniques, and each created a custom cologne to take home.

    Our host Mustafa was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He made sure everyone in the workshop was comfortable and made the effort to get to know each other. It was a cosy environment and everything was provided with unlimited complimentary tea and biscuits. We really enjoyed making our own perfumes including the children. I’d highly recommend it while in Istanbul.

    The workshop is an incredible experience. The guide gives you the option to meet if you’re on the European side so you don’t get lost getting there. We were served tea, coffee and biscuits. Workshop is easy to follow, all materials are included and you get to bring such a fun souvenir home and they even give you a certificate at the end. 10/10!

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    My friends and I were absolutely delighted with the time we spent together at the perfume-making workshop. We managed to create unique scents tailored to our personal preferences, and just as our instructor explained, after a few days the perfumes smell absolutely divine! The guidance we received throughout the workshop was incredibly helpful and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this as a lovely way to spend time with friends — over coffee, creativity, and beautiful fragrances!

    Activité que je recommande ++++, moment de partage convivial avec des personnes de différentes origines . L’accueil des représentants de l’atelier était incroyable (du point de rendez-vous jusqu’à la remise de la lampe.) J’ai déjà envie de refaire l’atelier et partager à nouveau ce moment extraordinaire.

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    A ritkábban látogatott ázsiai oldalon volt a program, így a város ezen oldalát is láthattuk. A workshop helyszíne nagyon hangulatos, ahol kedves kiszolgálást kaptunk. Maga a workshop egy nagyon élvezetes, kreatív tevékenység. Az oktató nagyon figyelmes és segítőkész.

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    Highly recommend this amazing class! What a fantastic way to make a beautiful souvenir and learn about perfume making. Our guide was clearly an expert and I appreciated his guidance as we learned to craft our own perfumes. I wish we would have learned a bit more about the history of perfume in Turkiye although our teacher very patiently answered all questions and was very knowledgable. Rather than crafting my own from scratch, I asked for some recommendations on how to make a scent reminiscent of a Turkish spice shop. Our teacher was kind enough to give some great guidelines to help shape my perfume's scent. Tbh, I'm obsessed with my new perfume and will be wearing it everyday.
