Perfume Education and Experimentation
In 'Praying to the Gods' at IAO Gallery, artist Persephenie brings together plants, scent, incense, and self-portraiture to explore reverence through the body.
Botanical perfumer Persephenie leads a class devoted to creating beautiful and aromatic smokable blends. In person.
Saskia Wilson-Brown presents a smell-enlivened lecture series demonstrating perfumery's impact on creative and cultural expression, at Philosophical Research Society. In this talk, we explore how humans have used scent to understand and express power.
Join your fellow perfumers and blend in community with plenty of aromatic materials to discover. Returning students only.
