More time maiking perfume
The ability to mix our own perfume was why we booked this experience. The activity started about 15 minutes late. We had chosen the English version. Unfortunately, our group leader was not easy to understand. We were able to glean some good information. The fun part was making our own perfume mix. We were not given much time for what we thought was the main activity. Also, we were limited to four fragrances. We were being pressured to finish up the perfume to be able to go on a tour. I would probably not repeat this experience. However, I would visit the fragrance store. The people working there were knowledgeable and patient.
It wasn't what I expected
The staff is very nice and knowledgeable. The workshop just wasn't what I expected. You don't really get to customize scents you like. You are just given 3 parts to a perfume to combine. It has to be the citrus scent they provide. I wasn't really a fan of the smell, neither were my daughters. We had imagined we could make vanilla or floral or whatever we fancied.
Nice expierence
It was a really nice experience. My Kids had a lot of fun :).
