MAISON DU PARFUMEUR
Olfactory Tasting Workshop: Discovering Warm Spices
Spices are much more than simple seasonings: they tell stories, evoke landscapes, and awaken our senses across cultures and continents. This olfactory workshop invites you to slow down, close your eyes, and dive into the rich aromatic world of spices.
For this first session, we will explore the fascinating universe of warm spices. Primarily from the Cinnamomum family, they are characterized by their enveloping notes—sometimes woody, resinous, or vegetal—that stimulate both the nose and the imagination.
Program:
-
A sensory introduction to help recognize the main aromatic families.
-
An exploration of saffroned notes, eugenol, and cinnamon, and their olfactory subtleties.
-
An immersion into complementary warm aromatic notes, such as nutmeg and clove, with intense and refined fragrances.
-
Sensory pairings to understand how these warm spices interact with gastronomy, perfumery, and memory.
This workshop is an invitation to listen, be curious, and share. Each participant will leave with an enriched olfactory palette and a new way of appreciating warm spices in daily life.
Date and Time: 2:30 PM – 4:30 PM
