Rome: Perfume Tasting & Fragrance Discovery Experience

Full description

Discover a different side of Rome through the fascinating world of Italian artistic perfumery. Just a short walk from St. Peter's Basilica, step inside an authentic artisanal perfume boutique for an immersive sensory experience designed to awaken your senses and help you discover your personal fragrance preferences.
Hosted by an independent Italian perfume house, this workshop introduces you to the craftsmanship, creativity, and traditions behind luxury niche fragrances. Your experience begins with a warm welcome and an introduction to the art of perfumery. Guided by knowledgeable fragrance experts, you will explore approximately 20 different perfumes, each with its own personality, character, and combination of aromatic notes.
Discover the differences between fresh, floral, citrus, woody, oriental, and other fragrance families. Learn how individual ingredients come together to create distinctive perfumes and why some scents feel light and refreshing while others are warm, intense, or sophisticated. During this interactive workshop, you will discover the fragrance pyramid and learn how top, heart, and base notes influence the development of a perfume.
Your host will explain how different scent combinations work together, how fragrances evolve over time, and how personal preferences influence the way we experience perfume. This experience is not simply about smelling perfumes. It is about learning to recognize what you genuinely enjoy.
As you explore different fragrances, you will be encouraged to identify the notes that appeal to you most, compare contrasting aromas, and understand which fragrance families match your personal style. Whether you love fresh citrus scents, delicate florals, warm spices, or rich woody compositions, the workshop will help you become more confident in recognizing and choosing fragrances.
No previous knowledge of perfumery is required. The experience is designed for curious beginners, perfume enthusiasts, couples, and travelers seeking a unique cultural activity in Rome. The workshop takes place a boutique specializing in handcrafted Italian niche perfumes. Discover the philosophy behind the brand and explore fragrances inspired by the history, culture, and timeless beauty of Rome.
Unlike a traditional perfume shop visit, this guided experience focuses on fragrance education, personal discovery, and understanding the art behind every scent. At the end of the workshop, you will have a clearer understanding of your fragrance preferences and the types of perfume you enjoy most.
If you discover a fragrance you love, you will have the opportunity to purchase a bottle directly from the boutique as a special souvenir of your time in Rome.
Purchases are entirely optional, and perfume bottles are not included in the experience price. Leave with a new appreciation for Italian perfumery, a deeper understanding of your own tastes, and the knowledge to choose fragrances with greater confidence in the future.
