My husband (Michael) booked this for us as a surprise, and it was such a wonderful experience and gift! Highly recommend to get to know a mix of Florence history and culture in a unique way. You will get to work with dozens of different scents, evaluate and mix your favorites in layers with the expert help of Fernanda. We are now waiting the 15 day waiting period to try our cologne and perfume out for the first time!

Fernanda and Deborah were excellent hosts! You get to learn the history of perfumes, the history of perfume in Florence, and the history of their personal shop. Then they’ll teach you how to make your own personal perfume (or cologne) that you can take home! They were very professional and knowledgeable and we had a great time! Would highly recommend for anyone, but especially those who love perfume/cologne.
