D-5 before Christmas. No more time to go buy a gift? Do not panic, Lyon news has selected several ideas for you from their Advent calendar. Today, we invite you to mark your loved ones by offering them participation in a perfume workshop in Lyon (Rhône).
An enriching experience
Since it opened three years ago, the Laugier House offers workshops to discover the “Little secrets” of perfumery and make a tailor-made fragrance.
Meeting a perfumer is unusual. Which makes the experience exciting and even more rewarding.
Elodie Campaign, the manager and founder of Maison Laugier has been immersed in the environment “since I was little”. And for good reason, she comes from a family of perfumers from Grasse, the perfume capital in the south of France. But it’s at Lyon, rue Thomassin in the 2e arrondissement, that she finally decided to settle.
Accompanied by a perfumer, they welcome the curious eager to ” discover the steps involved in creating a perfume or even raw materials ”.
Two different workshops
Despite the Covid-19, Elodie Campagne is keen to maintain her workshops with “strict health measures”, she assures. Halving of the number of participants, masks and plexiglass boxes: everything is done to ensure a good experience.
The lucky ones who have been offered this gift at Christmas will therefore be able to attend one of the following two workshops:
- “Perfume bar”: creation of a 15 ml bottle for 1 hour, at the price of 59 € per person. “The perfumer guides clients step by step. It’s quite instinctive: I like, I don’t like ”.
- “Private workshop”: creation of a 100 ml bottle for about 2 hours, at the price of 139€. This time, the experience is a little more extensive. “We have more time, more choice in the scents offered. The perfumer will take an interest in personality, find out if we have a Proust madeleine, for example, ”explains Elodie Campagne.
In both cases, each makes the manipulations himself and makes the perfume using the equation defined by the perfumer.
So convinced? To reserve a place in a workshop, it is over there.
For the clumsy, the Laugier house also offers ready-made creations, candles and room fragrances to pick up in store or buy online. here.
