A wonderful journey into the world of scents

I recently attended this perfumery workshop and it was such a beautiful experience from beginning to end. The atmosphere was calm, elegant, and so thoughtfully put together — the kind of setting that immediately makes you want to slow down and pay attention to every detail. What I loved most was how inviting the whole process felt. We got to smell and explore different raw ingredients, learn where they come from, and understand how they’re used in real fragrances. The explanations were clear and interesting, never overwhelming, and there was plenty of time to ask questions, experiment, and just enjoy the moment. I left with a completely new appreciation for perfume — not just as something we wear, but as a form of art and storytelling. It was a genuinely inspiring, sensory experience, and I would recommend it to anyone who loves scent, creativity, or simply wants to do something a little different and meaningful.

We wanted to try something unique so we came across this experience. We were greeted very nicely. We got an introduction about Parfumes and the history. Afterwards we could smell some base elements. After we've build a solid base for some scents we could create our own Parfume. We got a Base smell and then could add whatever we want (note that we always could get help and ask for recommendations). It was super nice and I would recommend everyone to try this experience!

Ananias Potamitis spoke with great passion about scents, guiding us through the experience and art of creating perfume. He took his time and let us do a lot ourselves. He was well-prepared. There was absolutely no commercial sales talk like “buy this or that from me.” In fact, his own handmade perfume isn’t even for sale yet (a pity — I would have gladly bought some from him).

Pretty interesting experience. Testing a high number of ingredients that are used to create a fragrance was my favourite activity.

It was a surprise to find such a unique activity in Groningen. The 3-hour long session was an entryway for people passionate about perfumes or people that are seeking for new experiences in the town. I fully enjoyed the session, starting with some historical background, leading to practicalities, meaning sorting out smells and, if you are lucky enough, to put together your own perfume;) The session is pleasantly intense, tho I wished it was even longer. Overall, great initiative for having this kind of events in our city, and Ananias is sooooo inspiring!!!

Such a wonderful experience! From the very beginning, it felt like stepping into a whole new world, with the fascinating historical background on perfumes and all the interesting facts we learned. My favorite part was when we were given different scents to smell and write down the notes we recognized; it felt like both a game and a learning process at the same time. And of course, creating our very own perfume at the end was the perfect highlight. I left with something personal that will always remind me of this experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for something different, creative, and truly inspiring!
Don't miss it!

I have to admit that I'm very excited after the experience that Ananias has organized for us. It is very interesting, informative and interactive. We had fun while learning so many things about perfumes and their ingredients. Of course the highlight was the creation of our own perfume! The host is friendly and eager to explain everything. Thank you very much Ananias. I would definitely recommend this experience!
