ABOUT
SCENTERED
WORKSHOPS

Scentered Workshops offers mindful perfume-making experiences in Amsterdam in an intimate, small-group setting.

​

Through guided exploration and hands-on experimentation, you’ll learn how to smell more deeply, understand how different fragrant materials behave, and craft a fragrance that’s uniquely yours.

​

More than your typical creative workshop, it’s a chance to slow down and thoughtfully engage your senses.

​

Whether you come alone, with a partner, or in a group, the experience is designed to feel immersive, grounded, and memorable — perfect for anyone looking to try something new.

MEET
YOUR HOST

Hi, I'm Arielle – a self-taught scentmaker, passionate about demystifying perfumery and making it more inclusive.
 

I found perfume-making at a time when I needed it most. While navigating a high-pressure career and chronic illness, I craved a creative escape that could quieten my mind and help me feel grounded.

 

Over time, it's become a practice in learning to play and to just let go. To experiment, to make mistakes; to trust my intuition and in the process.

​

Having moved 31 times across 5 countries, I understand the importance of community. That's why my workshops are designed to be welcoming, inclusive spaces that you can bring your whole self to and feel at home in.

​

The perfume world has often felt like somewhere I didn’t belong. Now, I’m proud to be the representation I once sought. By joining a workshop, you’re supporting a POC, female-owned small business in Amsterdam—one built with heart, intention, and a commitment to making the art of perfume accessible to all.
