In their perfume lab located at SM North Towers, you'll get to experience the art of crafting a scent. You'll also be able to explore and experience a variety of scents that can be a stepping stone into a new hobby, business, or leisure time activity.

With the assistance of their staff, you can learn the art of profiling their scent, choosing the right notes to harmonize the overall smell profile, and eventually blend the perfect recipe to create a perfume. Here's the step-by-step process to do so:

Step 1: Customers must choose 3 fragrance notes—which includes the top, middle and base notes. The top note is responsible for the perfume's first impression. They are usually fresh and light to represent the story of the fragrance. Then there's the middle or heart note, where the foundation of any fragrance lies and usually makeup from anywhere 40% or 80% of the total scent. It's generally pleasant, mellow and balancing, middle notes are much more complex than the top notes. Lastly, the base note. This is the final note and only appears after the others have completely evaporated. They are often very rich and smooth and are the longest lasting of the three classes of notes.
