Choosing your wedding perfume is one of the most personal details of the big day. Scent has the power to hold memories, a single note can bring you right back to the laughter, the emotion, and the magic of it all.
Imagine if you could design your own fragrance from scratch, sounds like the most perfect hen party activity, no?
That’s exactly what a bridal perfume workshop offers: the chance to design a scent that’s completely yours, surrounded by your favourite people, during a day filled with celebration and joy. Here’s how it works, and why brides across the UK are falling in love with this unforgettable hen party experience.
Step 1: Gather your bridal party
Your perfume making hen party begins with excitement in the air, glasses of prosecco clinking, friends catching up, and a table laid out with beautiful glass bottles and scent strips. Whether you’re hosting at home, at a hired venue, or at one of our partner locations across the UK, the atmosphere is warm and full of anticipation.
Our fragrance stylists will start by introducing the group to the world of perfume. You’ll discover the difference between top, middle, and base notes, and how they come together to create a lasting scent.
Step 2: Explore your favourite fragrance notes
Every bride has a signature style, and your scent should reflect that. Maybe you love something light and floral, or perhaps you’re drawn to rich, sensual notes like amber and musk. During the perfume design workshop, you’ll sample and blend from our exclusive perfume portfolio - choosing the combinations that feel most “you.”
This part of the bridal perfume experience always sparks laughter and creativity. Guests compare notes (“this smells like summer holidays!”) while the bride explores the ingredients that will define her fragrance - a scent to wear down the aisle, or to save for anniversaries and milestones.
Step 3: Blend, bottle, and name your fragrance
Once you’ve chosen your favourite notes, it’s time to bring your perfume to life. With guidance from your stylist, you’ll carefully blend your chosen essences to create... a fragrance that’s completely unique!
Then comes one of the most joyful moments of the workshop: naming your perfume. Brides often pick names inspired by their love story, wedding destination, or something that makes the group smile. Each bottle is then hand-blended, sealed, and presented as a keepsake - ready to take home.
Step 4: Celebrate and enjoy the moment
After the creative part comes the celebration. Raise a toast, take photos, and revel in the shared experience. Everyone leaves with their own bespoke fragrance and a memory tied to that scent - something they’ll remember long after the last dance at the wedding.
Many brides tell us their perfume becomes a treasured part of their story: a scent that instantly brings them back to the joy of their hen do and the excitement before the big day.
