The Art and Technology of Perfumery
Perfumery Course and Workshop
Sydney, Australia, September 2010
Kirsty McManus and ThePerfumery.com.au will be holding a 5 day course and workshop in "The Art and Technology of Perfumery" in Sydney, Australia for a small group of participants 1 week Monday to Friday in September 2010. Special guest speaker from PerfumersWorld Ltd., a perfumer with 38 years experience in the global perfumery business.
The workshop is not for the faint hearted, it is very intensive and participants are likely to learn more in 5 full days than they will learn working in a perfumery house for a year or more. Subjects covered will be perfume creation, commercial perfumery, natural perfumery, aromatherapy, spa and lifestyle products.
We still have places available for applicants and we are able to offer these places at the really special rate of AUS$(To be annouced). The rate includes Lunch and daytime refreshments during the course.
After last year’s Workshop this is what some of the participants said.
* In the mean time, I thank you again for last week's unbelievably informative and engaging experience. Who knew learning could be so much fun? L.L.
* I enjoyed it immensely
The method of training used is revolutionary and means that olfactory skills which normally take years to develop can be learned in a fraction of the time. For those with the olfactory skills already in place it offers a systematic method of perfume creation that speaks to end users requirements and breaks through creative blocks. The system has developed while training thousands of experienced professionals from 40 plus countries over the past ten years.
This Workshop is perfect for: Research & Development staff, Perfumers, Junior Perfumers, Research Chemists, Evaluators, Application Chemists and Business Owners in the Fragrance, Cosmetic, Flavor and Aromatherapy industries.
