WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this sensory workshop, we will explore the art of plant-based perfumery. You will also gain an elementary understanding of synthetic versus plant ingredients, perfume notes, and how to compose a perfume using a basic formula. Each participant will leave with a 15 ml bottle of their own work.

If you’ve attended this workshop previously, there’s good news!  The palette of exotic, plant oils has changed to all new scents.  Conversation is always lively and fun and complimentary sips will be provided. Hope you can join us! 

All attendees will receive 10% off any day-of Steadfast Supply purchase.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

Stemming  from 70 years of family history in and around Washington, D.C., Urban Forest Perfume Co. was born out of a desire to pay homage to the city,  honor my deep love of nature, and to share my passion for wearable,  plant-based aromatics.  The ability to connect with people through  fragrance brings me tremendous joy!       

On a stroll one day through Rock Creek Park (established in 1890 and one of the first national parks in the United  States ), the maker, Sara Phillips came across a sign that states, "Rock Creek Park is a 2,000  acre Urban Forest...".  Because Sara spent a lot of time in the park,  using it as a respite from crazy DC life, she felt it was the perfect name for her business.  “I like to think of myself as a city girl. I love the  fast-paced energy and grittiness of cities; however, I often crave rest  and relaxation outdoors in nature as a way to revitalize my creative spirit.” - Sara.
