First, I must say the host/teacher was so accommodating. My friend was sick and unable to make the original booking time. We were able to reschedule with no problem. While we were there, we were promptly greeted and seated. He taught us about Parfum scents and their layers. He guided us to make the best scent for both of us! I’ve made perfume before but this experience was different because we had the opportunity to pour the droplets into our perfume bottle. Other experiences don’t offer this step, it is done automatically. We also received a body and room spray service! I was so happy. I highly recommend this experience :)

This was an amazing experience. Jae was an excellent host. He has so much knowledge about perfumes. He walked me through the difference between eau de cologne, eau de toilet and eau de perfume. He has a large selection of top, middle and last notes to choose from. I loved the way my perfume turned out. Definitely recommend!

While in Seoul, we wanted to try a hands-on experience and found this perfume making class on Viator. I went with my teen daughter and we both loved the experience! Jay was very knowledgeable and friendly, and guided us helpfully through the process. The location was coincidentally directly behind our hotel, so that made finding the venue so convenient. It will be fun to have a custom souvenir and all the memories of taking the class together.

This perfume making experience was the best and most memorable one that I had in Seoul. I left here with a wonderful fragrance to remember my trip by for several years.

This is such a fun activity with my 12-year old daughter. I was worried Seoul was all about food and shopping but this activity is definitely worth trying if you are looking for an unique experience with a teenage girl.

It was a very new but altogether a different experience. We enjoyed the activity and the support from Mr Ju . Highly recommended.

It was so much fun to make our own perfume. The atmosphere was very serene and we never felt rushed.

Such a fun experience. Jay-nim was so great at explaining everything and making sure we were comfortable with the process and liked our scent. Probably one of my favourite experiences in Seoul.
Jazmin_S, May 2026
This was such a cool experience. Ju and ju senior were great at explaining the steps of how to make the Parfum and made the process easy. We enjoyed the experience and were very happy with how our scents came out. I would highly recommend! 10/10

Very entertaining experience. It's basically exactly as you would expect it, but the guide is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed this as a family activity.
Sherry_H, Apr 2026
This is a fun way to spend the afternoon in Hongdae! We each smelled and mixed our own custom scents and packaged them in our choice of bottle! This will be a fun souvenir to take home. Jay was helpful in helping us understand the process of perfume making.
Lisa_M, Mar 2026
Very friendly and patient specialist, who helped us create our own Perfume. He gave us some additional interesting information about perfumes at every step and me and my Mom both left the store happy with a good smelling perfume. :)
Can recommend!

Fun experience where you get the chance to create your own scent. Host is very kind and explains the process and a bit about scent making generally. It’s a great thing to do to take a minute to relax form the busy streets of Hongdae.
