DESCRIPTION:Sign up: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/make-your-own-perfume-brown-and-tan-in-person-tickets-1996529926756?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true \n– \n\n\nSaskia Wilson-Brown celebrates gluttony with a perfume-making class that emphasizes brown and tan smells\, with a distinctly gourmand edge. \n\n\n\n\nLet’s indulge our sweet tooth by discussing and smelling all facets of the sugariest\, nuttiest\, beeriest colors: Brown and tan. IAO founder Saskia Wilson-Brown leads attendees through the basics of perfume composition\, with a very simple goal in mind: To make ourselves an interpretation of brown and tan\, in perfume. \nThe first half of class will focus on learning our aromatic palette\, as we smell and discuss a curated selection of materials. The second portion of the class will consist of perfume composition: Each participant will be invited to work with the curated materials to create an original formula\, each leaving with a 30ml Eau de Toilette-strength perfume. \nExpect some olfactory adventures along the way! \n\n\n  \n– \nAlmonds: Photo by Elisabeth Rosenak on Unsplash

SUMMARY:Lectures on Tap: Culture and Perfume (in person)
DESCRIPTION:Sign up: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lectures-on-tap-culture-and-perfume-how-perfume-shaped-history-tickets-1997805809957?aff=oddtdtcreator \n– \nIn this lecture\, Saskia Wilson-Brown shares and discusses three perfume materials that shaped human culture. Drawing from her research for her upcoming book\, The Cultures of Perfume: Scents That Shaped History(releasing in November\, by D.A.P.)\, she will start the talk with a brief history of perfume\, going on to explore how jasmine perfumes have been historically intertwined with narratives of seduction. We will then smell musk\, and investigate its role in narratives of power in key Islamic texts and 18th century France. The talk ends with bergamot\, and how its use in Eau de Cologne impacted religious practices in the Americas. Join us for a lively exploration of scent’s role in the human experience. \nLocation shared upon signup.
