Hi I'm Karen,
I love sharing what I know and have the unique background of having worked both inside the fragrance industry (as an evaluator for IFF ) as well as inside the natural skincare industry (in product development and retail training for Neal’s Yard Remedies) since the 1990’s. For the last decade I have been independently teaching Artisan Perfumers like you how to create fragrances and launch their own perfumes.
Over the years I’ve trained a huge variety of people from all walks of life in fragrance creation. From buyers for huge brands, fragrance professionals, retail staff, bloggers, journalists, small business owners, aromatherapists, herbalists, fashion designers, artists, accountants, and the odd neuroscientist – most were complete newbies to perfumery.
My mission is to simplify and demystify the fragrance creation process for anyone who wants to make their own perfume.
Enjoy!
