Solid perfumes have made a stunning resurgence in recent years with major commercial fragrance houses like Jo Malone, Chanel, Diptyque, Le Labo and Tom Ford all creating solid perfumes. Solid perfume is exactly as the name suggests: perfume in a solid-state. This much we know, but why the sudden rise, why make a scent with sustainable local ingredients and why should we add one to our daily routine? Native & Wild is a two-hour sensory event where attendees will discuss these questions as they learn about Australian native plants, artisanal perfumery blending techniques, and how to create an Australian-made solid perfume.
