Scenthusiasm is an online introductory course in artisan perfumery, positioned around the idea of βLearn artisan perfumery online.β According to the page, the course was created by award-winning perfumer Sarah McCartney, an independent perfumer and founder of 4160Tuesdays. Rather than simply introducing perfume knowledge, the course aims to help learners actually create their own scented works.
Based on the information disclosed, the course covers several key areas needed for beginner perfumery: a recommended materials list, explainer films on how to use equipment and materials, and in-depth introductions to 12 popular fragrance families. It also provides step-by-step formulas that learners can follow and adjust themselves. By the end, learners can complete a set of handmade perfumes, including works inspired by classic styles as well as pieces that encourage original expression.
The course is delivered online. The page mentions explainer films, indicating that it at least includes pre-recorded instructional videos; however, it does not specify whether there are live classes, 1v1 guidance, homework feedback, or a student community. The instructor is one of the courseβs stronger selling points: Sarah McCartney has a background as an independent perfumer and perfume brand founder, and the course emphasizes moving beyond the logic of mainstream best-selling fragrances toward independent perfume creation.
The course is priced at Β£295, including VAT, and comes with 24 months of full access. For a niche skills course, the access period is fairly long and helpful for repeated practice, since perfumery requires familiarity with materials, formula experimentation, and olfactory training. However, the page also says the course provides a recommended materials list, which likely means learners need to purchase ingredients, tools, and other supplies separately. The real total cost will therefore be higher than the course fee alone.
The strengths are its clear positioning and well-rounded structure: it includes both theoretical analysis of fragrance families and hands-on formula work, making it suitable for people who want to start making independent perfumes from scratch. The 24-month access period also makes it better suited to repeated study than many short-term courses. The limitations are that the page does not disclose details about certificates, refunds, payment methods, or teaching support. Learners who need strong interaction, professional certification, or structured supervision should confirm these points before purchasing.
It is suitable for perfume enthusiasts, handmade fragrance creators, people who want to try independent perfumery, and beginners hoping to understand classic fragrance families while developing a personal style. The page is in English, and although the teaching language is not explicitly stated, Chinese users should expect an English-language barrier. There is no clear information on access or payment availability from mainland China, so it is advisable to test website access and the payment process before buying. Alternatives may include local offline perfumery workshops or Chinese-language fragrance courses.
