a contained world
This is not a counter spray and a quick recommendation. You step into a guided ritual of identity and scent, built to be calm, private, and precise.
traveling atelier
cartography session
your signature becomes visible, then becomes wearable.
This is a private, 90-minute scent cartography session designed for people who want more than another bottle. We use scent as a language to map what you consistently resonate with, what you avoid, and what you are becoming. Then we translate that map into a custom perfume sketch you can wear-test, while I refine the final bottle after the session.

a sketch you can live with

this is cartography. not guesswork.
the perfume is the map, made visible.
how it works
The Three Acts keep the experience clean, intentional, and personal.
act 1
scent cartography
- you arrive, reset, and we establish your intention
- we review your scent quiz direction, then confirm it through live smelling
- we map clear yes, no, and maybe families so the build stays clean
- blind smelling moments so discovery leads, not explanation
act 2
building the accord structure
- we build 2 to 3 key accords that reflect your map, your mood, and your desired presence
- you smell each stage as it evolves so the perfume becomes a collaboration, not a mystery product
- we create a draft sketch blend that represents your current signature direction
act 3
naming and declaration
- we declare the name, because the name locks meaning
- we document the direction, emotional target, and wearing rules
- we finalize what i refine over the next 30 days before bottling your finished perfume
what you leave with
Immediate proof, plus a refinement path.
the day of your session
- your 2 to 3 custom accords on blotters, created during the session
- approximately 2 ml of your draft sketch blend to wear-test and live with
- a clear scent map of what works on your skin and why, so you can choose the rest of your fragrance wardrobe with precision
after the session
- i refine your formula over the next 30 days for balance, diffusion, and wearability
- your final perfume is bottled and labeled and delivered after the refinement period
- if your wear-test notes reveal a needed adjustment, i incorporate that into the refinement pass
who this session is perfect for
- you want a signature scent, not a shelf of guesses
- you are new to perfume vocabulary but you know what you feel
- you want a scent that reads as luxury up close and stays refined in the drydown
before you arrive
Four small moves that make the session sharper.
1
take the scent quiz and save your result. your answers are a guide and are not stored.
take the quiz2
bring 1 to 3 fragrances you already love, or tell me what they are.
3
avoid wearing strong fragrance to the session if possible, so your nose starts clean.
4
come prepared to speak in feelings, not just notes. emotion is part of the craft here.
