    After being tested and discovering what I coined as being allergic to smelling good it has been a hard road filled with frustration and tears. Every commercial perfume seems to have something I can't put on my skin which is when out of frustration I said I'll just make my own and found Miller Road Frangrance Studio. I'm blown away, they were wonderful, beyond helpful and so understanding. They answered all my questions, looked up ingredients and were just as excited as I was when I made my final perfume. It was more than I could hope for and they really went above and beyond. Excitingly there are so many scents I can choose from and I will be coming back over and over again. Thank you so much for giving me something back I thought I couldn't enjoy anymore.

    I was gifted a 2.5 hour Perfumery Workshop as a Mother’s Day gift and finally got to use it this week with my mum and sister and it was fabulous, a highlight of our trip. It was something I’d never done before and would highly recommend, I’d definitely do it again as well. The staff are absolutely fabulous, so friendly and knowledgeable, the whole experience was so enjoyable. Thank so much for such a great experience.

    We had such a fab time making our perfumes. The venue was beautiful and the workshop so much fun. Wilson our host was very knowledgeable, patient and explained the process beautifully. He was passionate about fragrances and it made it even more exciting to create your own. Would highly recommend it for a function or just with mates.

    Such a fun experience. I learned a lot about the complexity of creating a personalized fragrance. Would highly recommend it! Travelling from Canada so not likely to return too often .. hope Miller Road comes to 🇨🇦!

    I went to the make your own perfume work shop and had a fabulous time. It is great value for money, Wilson was the facilitator and was informative, clear with his instructions and so calm to be around. It is such a fun experience to smell the fragrances, and learn how to make your own perfume. Thank you so much Wilson! I love the fragrance I made and you were so helpful.

    I took my 15 year old daughter and we had a brilliant time at a workshop. Nothing was too much trouble for the charming staff. The 150 minutes flew by. I highly recommend.

    I can’t recommend the perfume workshop enough!! I did one several months ago after being grifted the experience, and the staff are incredible, the evening is so exciting and it’s a gorgeous keepsake which you can have remade later once you’ve used it up. Gorgeous products in the store as well

    My daughters purchased a perfume making workshop birthday voucher for me in 2021 - and of course COVID put a stop to being able to use it until last night. What a wonderful time my daughters and I had making our own perfumes. Such a treat and very special evening - time together doing something totally different. Treena and Frances were delightful hosts - helpful, knowledgeable and so friendly. We each came away with our very own bespoke perfume - bottled, named and beautifully packaged. I highly recommend their workshop - we laughed so much and had the best fun.

    What an incredible experience creating your own unique perfume! The staff are friendly, caring and knowledgeable and guided us throughout. Took my granddaughter for her 17 Birthday experience and she hasn’t stopped talking about it. Absolutely 5 stars and more. I’ve also ordered products several times and they arrive promptly, beautifully packaged and waiting to fill your home with love, light and fragrance.

    SO GOOD!!! Highly recommend this fragrance workshop, I took a friend for her birthday and it was a fantastic experience. Beautiful setting in their shop/studio, super interesting / highly informed / easily guided course without being overwhelming and warm engaging staff who clearly love what they do. Even fun doing it with a bunch of strangers. Make for a great hens do activity or special occasion and inclusive environment for all genders. So stoked with my fragrance and loved the choice of lid colour and packaging, whole process and experience really well thought through. Great little business located in Devonport where you have plenty of dining options regardless of whether you do a morning or afternoon workshop and fair amount of parking in the area with bus/ferry options too.

    The perfume workshop was such a great learning experience! The system was easy to follow and so much fun. Loads of different scents to play with and everyone was able to make something so unique whilst still smelling great. Treena is lovely and down to earth and her staff were just as friendly and helpful - Wilson lead our workshop and he was so much fun! At the end you get to walk away with your perfume in a professional glass bottle and custom label. Already trying to find an excuse to do it all again. Their own fragrances and candles are also wonderful!

    I attended the perfume making workshop in Devonport and it was amazing! Such a fun experience, the staff were very kind and helpful. They guide you through every step of the process and provide feedback to help you make your perfect scent. Plus I got a beautiful perfume at the end!

  • 5/5 YS Guo (. 6 months ago on Google
    A great experience and highly recommended. Experiment with different scents mixed together and end up making your own perfume under the guidance of a professional. Really super love it.

  • 5/5 Rianna C. 9 months ago on Google
    This place is heaven!! The ladies who ran the workshop were so sweet and knowledgeable, even though I know plenty about perfume I learned so much and had the most amazing time with my friend. I was kind of nervous going into it because It’s something new, but they’re so patient and explain things thoroughly it’s pretty hard to mess up. They serve tea, it smells amazing inside; literally the perfect time. One thing though, you will go in with an idea of what you want to create and I promise it’ll end up completely different 😂 but in the best way. Their house perfumes are also very nice.

    So lovely! I did the make your own fragrance workshop. They really take the time to make sure you truly love the fragrance that you are making. And the people there are all very kind!

  • 5/5 Fiona M. 9 months ago on Google
    I have to say, this is one of the most fun and interesting things I've ever done. I loved it. It feels like the best bits of school science but without the exam - instead you get a yummy present at the end (well, ok, a $150 present that you are buying for yourself, but it's worth it). The science part was great but it was also super creative. It is hard not to be nervous that playing around with nice smells is actually going to give you a good result, but it does. So to have all this fun, hang out with a mate, sniff, laugh, sniff and then come out with a very satisfying product, that's a pretty good result. I would totally do it again and have told the husband that I think blokes would really get a lot out of it too. Can't recommend it highly enough.

    Multi-time client here!! It's so much fun!!!! The latest time I went, I was as a Support Person for my blind mum. I was here eyes and hands. I loved how accommodating the team here were and my Mum got to make her very own fragrance. Such a great gift idea! Beware...the gift shop is GORGEOUS!

    A warm, scented and romantic small studio, a fun and knowledgeable experiencing class, smelled lots of different flavored scented oils then created very own special perfume!! A unforgettable experience, an amazing small journey!!
