Intensive Technical Training

Start your journey into the world of fragrance creation.

This intensive technical training program provides the essential foundations of perfumery, introducing students to raw materials, olfactory training, and the creative process behind fragrance creation.

Completing the program is an important step, but it is only the beginning of a longer journey. Becoming a perfumer requires continuous practice, experience, and years of developing your knowledge and olfactory skills.

The program consists of four progressive levels. Levels 1, 2, and 3 take place in Dubai and last 6 days each. Level 4 is held in Grasse, France, and lasts 5 days. Between levels, students have dedicated time for self-study and continued olfactory practice with raw material kits.

Applicants committed to completing the full four-level program will be given priority.
Program fee: €3,300 for Levels 1, 2, and 3, and €3,000 for Level 4.
All levels are taught in English by professional perfumers from France and certified by the Grasse Institute of Perfumery.
