I have a couple of events coming up in Harrods, Knightsbridge, which has the most gorgeous auditorium in their Lower Ground Floor for intimate masterclasses and interview panels. As a department store, I know it’s a pretty overwhelming space for many of us, but you can't deny they have the most incredible perfume selection and put a massive amount of love, care and support into their fragrance brands and founders. I’ve seen this first hand as I’ve been lucky enough to host many events there, and I love how Harrods works incredibly hard to immerse their customer into their favourite brands with beautiful in-person discovery sessions.
Here are some special masterclasses I’m hosting over the next few weeks, which involve meeting Master Perfumers to truly understand their fascinating craft. We’ll get to smell brand new perfumes together and trust me you will leave brimming with inspiration, knowledge and plenty of little treats!
GUERLAIN - WEDNESDAY 17th JULY, 6pm - 7.30pm
Harrods Auditorium, Lower Ground Floor, London
In a rare moment for scent superfans, I’ll be interviewing Guerlain perfumer Delphine Jelk and delving into her artistic process and career journey with one of the most established, respected and important perfume houses in the world. We’ll also be discovering her latest creation, Patchouli Paris, together and getting all the insider secrets about how she constructed it. With a redeemable ticket and gorgeous goodie bag, this is one not to miss!
BDK PARFUMS - THURSDAY 25th JULY, 4.30pm - 5.30pm
Harrods Auditorium, Lower Ground Floor, London
If you love niche perfumery and want to expand your fragrance collection with something utterly unique and different, this is the brand to get to know. BDK Parfums founder David Benedek is the equivalent of a perfume film director, conjuring incredible ideas and concepts, then hand-picking a shining star to lead his creation. In this case, it’s Master Perfumer Julien Rasquinet who has blended something very special - and it’s exclusive to Harrods. In this immersive conversation we’ll smell it all together, and celebrate their recent Fragrance Foundation award nomination!
