The Natural Purefume Bar Workshop: Craft Your Signature Scent

Join me for a relaxed, hands-on perfume making workshop in Ipswich where you’ll create a fragrance that’s completely, unmistakably you. No synthetic fillers, no mystery ingredients. Just pure essential oils, a bit of guidance, and the fun of blending something beautiful with your own hands.
Why scent hits differently
Ever caught a smell and been instantly taken back to your nan’s kitchen, a holiday, or a person you love? That’s because your sense of smell has a direct line to the parts of your brain that handle memory and emotion. It’s powerful stuff, and most of us barely think about it.
This workshop is your chance to slow down, get curious about what you’re drawn to, and turn that into a scent you’ll actually want to wear every day.
What happens at our perfume making workshop in Ipswich
- The science of scent memory: why smell is so closely tied to how you feel
- Your scent personality: a guided journey through your preferences, moods and memories
- How a fragrance is built: including the one simple rule that makes a blend work
- Blend your signature roller perfume: choose from a curated selection of pure oils
- Name it, bottle it, take it home
No experience needed. Just bring your curiosity (and your nose).
What’s included
- 2-hour hands-on workshop
- Your own signature scent worksheet to keep
- A roller perfume, blended and bottled by you
- Essential oil-infused morning tea
Small groups only. I keep numbers low so everyone gets plenty of hands-on time and support, which means spots do fill.

Your facilitator
I’m Marcia, a Nutrition & Gut Health Coach and essential oils educator, and I’ve had a long-running love affair with scent. There’s rarely a day I’m not blending something.
I believe fragrance is one of the most underrated ways to feel like yourself again. Not as a luxury, but as a simple, everyday bit of self-care. The Purefume Bar grew out of exactly that.
Expect practical, playful and refreshingly un-fussy. Less sitting and listening, more getting your hands on the oils and figuring out what feels like you.
