What you'll do:

Walk into Nose Best's active Brooklyn production studio and spend 90 minutes building a perfume that is entirely yours, chosen from a library of 30 high-quality fragrance oils with over 600,000 possible combinations.

• Learn proper fragrance technique – Your instructor walks you through how to smell correctly, identify notes, and understand how scents interact before you blend a single drop.

• Build your formula – You choose your own oil combinations and ratios, guided by a hands-on demo, until the blend matches exactly what you had in mind.

• Refine your scent with expert feedback – One of the Nose Best founders works with you directly at your station, answering questions and helping you fine-tune your formula in real time.

• Construct your finished perfume – You mix, measure, and bottle your creation with precision, leaving with a complete, wearable fragrance made from scratch.

• Explore the retail shop – Before you leave, browse the Nose Best gift shop on-site and use the exclusive guest discount to take home more of what you love.

The whole experience moves at a relaxed pace, in a space that feels more like a night out than a craft class. You leave with something you actually made and would actually wear.

Why we love it for your party:

• Working studio setting – The class takes place inside Nose Best's real production facility in Bushwick, so you're making perfume where the brand is actually built, not in a rented event room.

• Speakeasy atmosphere – Low lighting, calm music, and lounge-style seating give the space a social vibe that works for bachelorettes, birthdays, and date nights equally well.

• Founder-led instruction – The two founders who started Nose Best teach every class themselves, so every guest gets genuine expertise and personal attention, not a script.

• Complimentary drink included – Each guest receives a beverage during the class, which keeps the second half social and relaxed without you having to plan anything extra.

• Early arrival for décor – Groups can arrive 15 to 20 minutes before the session to set up decorations, making it easy to turn this into a proper celebration.
