This AromAlchemy™ apprenticeship is for visionary creatives, wellness practitioners, aromatherapists, and aspiring natural perfumers ready to master the soulful and professional art of botanical fragrance creation — and even craft a brand around their own signature scent.
Created by Françoise Rapp, independent French perfumer and pioneer in scent wellness with 30+ years of experience, this mentorship fuses French perfumery tradition with the energetics of plants, the science of neuro-scents, and the subtle art of emotional resonance. Françoise has trained hundreds of professionals worldwide and taught at the prestigious École Supérieure du Parfum in Paris and Grasse.
Perfect for those seeking a refined, emotionally intelligent, and fully clean perfumery method — rooted in nature, guided by intention, and shaped through expert 1:1 mentorship.
WHAT YOU’LL MASTER
Crafting perfumes exclusively with natural materials — essential oils, absolutes, tinctures, resins, and botanicals.
Designing a perfume structure (top, heart, base) infused with both olfactive precision and emotional storytelling.
Selecting and working with core raw materials — from bright citruses to sacred resins, delicate florals to deep fixatives — and understanding their energetic qualities.
Using natural alcohols, harmonization, and maceration for professional, long-lasting results.
Creating emotionally and energetically aligned scents that support healing, identity, and brand values — bridging neuroscience with the ancient wisdom of perfumery.
This is not a formula-by-numbers course. It’s an immersive apprenticeship where you receive personalised guidance from Françoise to refine your compositions, correct your formulas, and elevate your creative vision. You will meet in person 1:1 in 3 Zoom calls (1 hour) and weekly email exchanges.
You’ll graduate with the skills, confidence, and energetic sensitivity to create perfumes that are not only beautiful and natural — but also deeply resonant, whether for your brand, personal rituals, or soul-based offerings.
