SUMMARY:Summer Smells: Perfume-Making Workshop (in person)
DESCRIPTION:Sign up: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/summer-smells-perfume-making-workshop-in-person-tickets-1993969625827 \n– \nJoin Minetta Rogers for a guided blending session celebrating the summer — and\, of course\, perfume-making! For beginners\, but all levels are welcome. \nFor the first portion of this smelling and blending session\, we will learn about some smells of summer. Scent strips will be handed out by your friendly Institute for Art and Olfaction team\, and we will spend time smelling and discussing our impressions of aromatic materials associated with the season. \nWe will start the second portion of the session by briefly discussing and practicing blending scent. Each student will have the opportunity to blend with aromatic materials from the session’s selected palette. We will spend the rest of the session experimenting with our own short formulas. \nEach attendee goes home with a small trial of their aromatic blend\, and a commemorative IAO fan to keep yourself cool. \n– \nImage credits: Photo from Pexels

SUMMARY:Make Your Own Banana Accord (in person)
DESCRIPTION:Sign up: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/make-your-own-banana-accord-in-person-tickets-1994630066222 \n– \n\n\nExplore the funky\, funny\, and very sweet world of banana smells in this accord-blending workshop with Julianne Lee. \n\n\n\n\nJoin us in monkeying around in the joyous\, tropical\, unctuous aspects of banana. In this hands-on workshop led by Julianne Lee\, you’ll learn how perfumers construct fruity accords from scratch\, then build and take home your own banana accord. \nThe class will begin with sampling a curated selection of perfumes from the IAO Collections that feature this delicious note. Next\, we’ll smell a bevy of molecules that evoke B-A-N-A-N-A in its many forms: sweet\, green\, creamy\, ripe and pungent. \nYou’ll then play with those materials and practice balancing a formula. How naturalistic or candy-runt do you want your banana? This workshop is all about experimentation\, but with rigor: No answers or formulas are given\, but the tools to empower you in your perfume journey. \nWe highly recommend that you have at least one IAO class under your belt\, but eager beginners with self-taught knowledge are also welcome. By the end of class\, you’ll leave with your own banana accord formula in hand\, along with a working understanding of accord-building that you can apply to any other fragrance notes. \nTopics covered: \n+ A breakdown of banana’s scent in the language of aromamolecules \n+ An opportunity to smell perfumes from the IAO Collections that feature banana \n+ Accord-creation: ratios\, proportions\, evaluation \n\nPhoto credits: www.Pixel.la Free Stock Photos Wikipedia / Billjones94 on Wikipedia
