Five senses. One note.
“Perfume isn’t magic, it’s a moment, a chemistry defined by intention and shaped by you.”
Fifth Note offers a hands-on workshop designed for anyone who wants to step into the world of perfume and cologne creation. It’s a guided experience where you explore fragrance through both artistry and science, and walk away with something truly unique: your own custom scent.
Each workshop begins with a clear breakdown of how fragrance works, including notes, families, techniques, and the fundamentals of blending. After that, you dive straight into exploring our curated selection of oils and aroma materials, choosing from a wide range of notes to build the shape of your fragrance.
With an experienced perfumer guiding you, you will experiment, adjust, and layer ingredients until your perfume or cologne begins to take form. This is where the balance of intuition and science comes alive as you refine ratios, test combinations, and build the scent that reflects your taste, personality, and style.
By the end, you leave with a custom fragrance created by you, along with a deeper understanding of how scent is built. It’s a modern, elevated workshop for anyone who wants to learn about perfumery or looking to create something personal, memorable, and entirely their own.
Our roots are fully Canadian, and our brand is built and operated right here at home. Most of what we use and build comes from partnerships with local suppliers and small businesses who care about quality just as much as we do.
Choosing Fifth Note means you are also supporting the people and creators who shape our community. It keeps talent growing here at home, strengthens the local economy, and adds real value to the place we all share.
For us, it is simple. When we invest in our own community, everyone rises with it.
Fifth Note began with a clear belief: fragrance should be as unique and personal as the individual wearing it. We were tired of scents that felt generic, predictable, or disconnected from the people who wore them, so we created a space where anyone could craft a perfume that feels honest and entirely their own.
We move through life with all five senses, but scent is the one that wakes the others up. One smell can pull you into a memory, shift your mood, or make your whole body react before your mind catches up. That power is exactly why we treat fragrance as the sense that leads and the one that lingers.
Fifth Note was built so people could experience that for themselves. Not from a bottle on a shelf, but from something they create with intention. A scent that speaks for them, not at them.
