Discover the Art of Scent: A Natural Perfume Workshop w/ LOHN

LOHN's scents take you on a journey, transporting you to different places and reminding you of moments in time. The founders of LOHN, Victoria and Kat, were inspired by an ancient trade route called the Amber Road. They imagined the scents of mountains, seas, forests, and fields along the journey and created scent collections based on these ideas.

During this workshop, your team will be taken on a sensory experience by exploring aromatherapy and creating a scent that is uniquely theirs with perfumery expert Katerina Juskey of LOHN Candles. You'll learn about different perfume ingredients and their aromatherapy benefits, and how to blend them to create a scent that you'll bottle and take home to enjoy. Enjoy connecting with colleagues through questions that will provoke conversations about scent memories and stories.

Let LOHN's scents transport you to different places and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Meet the Founders of LOHN: Victoria + Katerina

LOHN launched in 2018 with four candles. Victoria and Katerina were inspired by the road less travelled and their scents are designed to remind you of moments in time. That’s what they create, scents that you remember and keep with you on your journey.

They went through some pretty kooky concepts before finally landing on LOHN, a name that means ‘scent’ in Estonian. A huge inspiration for LOHN was their backgrounds (Victoria is Polish and Kat is half Estonian and half Lithuanian) and an ancient trade route that crossed these countries called the amber road. The amber road was used to trade amber, a fossilized resin, and medium of exchange during antiquity, and it connected the Baltic Sea to the Adriatic. This is where the idea to design their scent collections came from. Having never travelled this road, they imagined the scents of the mountains, seas, forests, and fields along the journey. Then with Kat’s perfumery expertise, we got to work on our clean, complex scents.

They’ve hand poured their candles in Toronto since day one, starting in Victoria’s apartment. But hey, apparently Guerlain built his perfume laboratory in his apartment, so who knows where this journey will take them ;)
