Create Your Signature Scent: Fragrance Design Experience in Newcastle

Located in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, England, the Fragrance Design Experience invites you to step behind the scenes of the art and science of perfume making. Set on Neville Street, this unique workshop crafts more than just scents—it delivers a personalized journey into the world of olfactory expression. Over the course of two immersive hours, visitors of all backgrounds can explore exclusive fragrance blends and engage hands-on with the delicate craft of design, topped off by a welcome glass of bubbly to set the mood.

Newcastle upon Tyne itself is a city steeped in culture with an industrial heritage softened by the flowing River Tyne, but few visitors realize it also fosters creative spaces like this one that blend tradition with modern luxury. This experience stands apart in the local recreation scene, as few outdoor-oriented cities offer such indoor artistry that connects visitors directly with the essence of place through scent.

What makes this experience truly stand out is the opportunity to craft your own signature perfume from an exclusive palette of ingredients—rare floral extracts, robust woods, and fresh citrus notes—all thoughtfully curated to reflect a spectrum of personalities and moods. Participants receive expert guidance through balancing and blending, learning the foundational notes and layers that make a fragrance truly memorable.

The elegantly packaged perfume you create is yours to keep, making for a lasting reminder of your visit and a distinct personal souvenir unlike anything else. For those wanting to extend their day, a luxurious afternoon tea option complements the scent creation with a pleasant, relaxing finale.

This studio ethos thrives as a quiet but potent part of Newcastle's creative fabric, emphasizing sensory storytelling in a city better known for its bridges and nightlife. It’s an ideal stop for travelers who enjoy exploring cultural niches beyond the typical sightseeing loop and appreciate experiences that mix creativity with indulgence.

Whether you are celebrating a special occasion, seeking a meaningful gift, or simply curious about the craft of perfumery, this hands-on encounter offers a fascinating, sensory-focused adventure. Paired with Newcastle’s vibrant urban backdrop and nearby attractions, it provides a refined, memorable outing for locals and visitors alike.
