Why Perfume Workshops Make Surprisingly Great Team-Building Experiences

When people think of team building, they often imagine escape rooms, quizzes, or another round of bowling. Fun, sure — but also familiar. Perfume workshops offer something different: a shared sensory experience that invites curiosity, creativity, and connection in a way that feels natural rather than forced.

At How To Scent It, perfume workshops are designed not just to smell beautiful things, but to bring people together through discovery, storytelling, and play.

Inclusive and Easy to Join

Everyone can participate. There’s no right or wrong way to experience a fragrance — just personal impressions. This immediately lowers barriers and creates a relaxed, open atmosphere.

A Natural Way to Connect

Smelling raw perfume ingredients and fragrances together sparks conversation and storytelling. Scents often evoke memories, emotions, or associations, helping colleagues connect beyond their usual work roles.

Encourages Curiosity and Open-Mindedness

Exploring unfamiliar scents invites teams to listen, reflect, and appreciate different perspectives — valuable skills in any collaborative environment.

Calm, Focused, and Memorable

Unlike loud or competitive activities, perfume workshops offer a calm, engaging experience that leaves participants feeling refreshed. Because scent is closely linked to memory, the experience tends to stay with people long after the session ends.

A Human Approach to Team Building

Rather than focusing on output, perfume workshops focus on awareness, curiosity, and connection — creating a shared experience that feels thoughtful, personal, and genuinely enjoyable.
