Students learn raw materials (natural and synthetic), olfactory families, fragrance structure, accord construction, and perfume formulation techniques.

Beyond blending, students learn to analyze fragrances, understand scent structure, work with various raw materials, and build accords that form the foundation of perfume formulation.
