Create your own signature scent in a perfume workshop in Ho Chi Minh City. Learn about fragrance families, choose your favorite notes, and take home a 15/30/50ml bottle of your custom perfume. It’s the perfect cultural experience in Saigon for those seeking authentic, small-group workshops and unique things to do in Vietnam beyond traditional sightseeing.

The workshop offers more than 40 diverse fragrance notes — ranging from light and pure to warm and sophisticated. Notably, several of these scents highlight the cultural identity of Vietnam. Inspired by familiar local ingredients such as West Lake white lotus, Tra Bong cinnamon from Central Vietnam, fresh mountain ginger, lemongrass from the Mekong Delta, and Dalat pine forests, these elements are transformed into unique fragrance notes for guests to use in their creative process. We believe that each drop of perfume is not only a blend of layered notes, but also a story of Vietnam’s land, culture, and people. More than a class, this is your chance to bottle a unique memory.
