Natural Scent Education
Botanical perfume education focused on the fundamentals of natural scent blending and composition, combining theory and practice with historical context, the creative process, and olfactory training.
Occasional posts expand into subtle aromatherapy and scent rituals, exploring the historical and contemporary uses of sacred and symbolic aromatics and their influence on the psyche through practices such as aromatherapy, meditation, breathwork, somatics, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. Field notes and reflections on scent, sensory perception, and imagination further deepen olfactory awareness and engagement with fragrant botanicals beyond perfumery.
Botanical Perfume Scholarship
To support a few curious students each year, I’m offering a scholarship.
To apply, send a short paragraph (100–150 words) answering:
Why do you want to learn botanical perfumery?
What draws you to natural scent?
You do not need prior experience. Beginners and newly subscribed students are welcome.
Selected applicants will receive 20% off a yearly Substack subscription, including botanical perfume and subtle aromatherapy education, field notes, sensory exploration, practical recommendations, and access to the full Archive (250+ posts).
Send your application to: kamila.aubre@gmail.com
There is no deadline. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. I will personally select recipients based on curiosity, thoughtfulness, and commitment to exploring botanical scent, not technical knowledge or perfumery experience.
