Now scheduling for Spring / Summer 2023.
NOVA founder/perfumer Julia Zangrilli received certification in raw materials from the
Grasse Institute of Perfumery in 2010. Her one-on-one classes combine a decade of formulation experience plus highlights from her training in France, offering both natural and synthetic raw material education in two condensed offerings.
We offer a 2 hour introduction to raw materials, as well as a 2 day intensive course - both can be customized as natural and/or synthetic raw materials depending on the students interest. Our 2 day offering covers olfactive families much more extensively and includes an introduction to formula creation / compounding. This portion of training includes learning and performing several classic fine fragrance formulas in the studio lab using NOVA's raw materials + equipment. Students will be provided with all the resources they will need to build a home lab as well as further reading recommendations and sample formulas.
Classes are scheduled following purchase. If you have a required date in mind, be sure to email us ahead of time to hold a time slot. We ask that clients needing to re-schedule set appointments do so at least 24 hours in advance.
