5 Types Of Scent Workshops In Singapore
Singapore's team bonding activities have moved well past bowling alleys and escape rooms in recent years. At Slow Scent Company, scent workshops have quietly become one of the more memorable options, and candle making is only the beginning. Here is a closer look at what the line-up actually covers, from wearable perfume to something closer to a full evening out, whether you are booking for a whole department or just a handful of friends.
Perfume Bag Charm Workshop
Our Perfume Bag Charm Workshop takes the studio's usual scent blending session and turns the result into something you can actually wear. You start the same way our perfume-making class begins, selecting your own perfume scent, to picking your bag charm accessories to match your style and colours, before that scent becomes a charm clipped onto a bag as a functional accessory on the go. Slow Scent Company is the first to offer a perfume bag charm-making activity in Singapore. Email us at hello@slowscentcompany.com to enquire, as the activity is currently open for corporate or larger group bookings with a minimum of 10 pax.
The format moves in stages, from scent to finished piece, easy enough to follow from the first pour to the last knot.
- Make your perfume.
- Choose your metal loop.
- Choose your paracord.
- Assemble.
The loop and paracord choices are what make each charm properly personal, tying it to the current bag charm trend while keeping the whole thing practical rather than purely decorative. A charm built piece by piece like this tends to feel like one of the more customised scented gifts you could put together for someone, rather than something picked up in a rush. It suits a small group of friends just as well as a couple looking for something to do together on a slow weekend afternoon.
Room Mist Making Workshop
The Room Mist Making Workshop keeps things fully customisable, built from your own choice of crystals and botanicals rather than a fixed recipe someone else decided on beforehand. You choose what goes into the bottle, from the botanicals that shape the scent to the crystal that finishes it off, testing a few combinations before settling on the one that feels right. It runs for an hour and a half, priced from $65 for 50ml and 100ml at $79, and stays beginner-friendly with a minimum of two people to book, a good starting point if you have never blended a scent before and would rather ease into it than commit to a full afternoon. Gather your friends, and we will provide 10% off with a minimum group of 4 pax. Custom quotes are available for larger corporate groups.
Candle Making Workshop
Our longest-running session is the two-hour Candle Making Workshop, ending with a Crystal Botanical Scented Soy Candle poured and finished by hand. It suits small private groups just as comfortably as corporate days and university outings, a fun and slightly unexpected addition to the usual list of team-building workshops most companies already keep on file. Pricing runs at $65 per person, with 10 percent off from four pax and custom quotes available for larger corporate groups.
If a private booking is what you are after, our scented candle workshop is easy to find directly, whether that means a candle-making class for two on a quiet afternoon or a full table booked out for a birthday. Guests who have never poured a candle before tend to settle in quickly once the wax is warm and the scent choices are laid out in front of them.
Preserved Flower Vase Arrangement × Room Mist Making
The most involved of the five sits with the Preserved Flower Vase Arrangement paired with Room Mist Making, run across two and a half hours with a minimum of four people. The first half is guided by our studio partner Eden's Ground, building an everlasting preserved flower arrangement that holds its shape for months rather than a week. The second half turns to a personalised room mist blend, so you leave with something to look at and something to smell. Pricing sits at $140 per person, better suited to a slower, more indulgent outing than a quick Tuesday team lunch, the kind of session that works well for a birthday, a bridal party, or simply a long-overdue catch-up with friends.
Light Up & Manifest Workshop
The Light Up & Manifest Workshop is a collaboration with Eventually Tarot, bringing candle making together with tarot affirmations and crystal sound bowls in the same evening. It runs for two hours and fifteen minutes, priced at $130 with a minimum of three people, and is held at a separate studio in Geylang rather than our usual Hong Lim Complex space. For a group after something a little different from a straightforward candle pour, it tends to be the session people are still talking about the next morning, part craft workshop and part evening out with friends.
Finding The Right Workshop For Your Group
Singapore's scent workshop scene has more range than candle pouring alone, from wearable perfume to tarot and crystal sound. Whichever format suits your group, each team building workshop is built around the same idea: something made slowly, by hand, and kept long after the session ends, rather than forgotten the moment everyone heads home.
