PERFUME Cologne class - We had an amazing time at Tijon New Orleans as a birthday gift for my boyfriend. Such a fun class and experience. John the owner was very informative & the staff were all friendly and nice. You get a complimentary cologne/ perfume made by the owner as well as the perfume you make and complimentary champagne. We will definitely recommend to others when they visit New Orleans. Even though the owner let us know that there is now one in our hometown of Houston Tx.

Great for women and men, fun class! - This class was such a great time, they make things so simple and break it down for you step by step. I was a little intimidated before going that I would make perfumes that wouldn't turn out good because I know NOTHING about perfume or combining scents but they really made it seem so simple and I LOVE the scent I made. I ended up actually liking all 3 I made and had a hard time deciding which to choose. New and fun experience for us, my husband had a great time too and loved the scent he made as well.

Unique Experience - Dayton was personable, friendly, and patient with our group. We weren’t sure if we’d love our fragrance, but the by the time we left it all came together. Highly recommended!

Fun perfume making lab! - My daughter and I made our own custom perfume and it was so fun. The instructor was fantastic and explained everything so well and was happy to answer any questions. They have so many scents to choose from- you get to make 3 scents and then pick your favorite. Your favorite gets bottled up and you pick a name for your scent. So glad we did this! Made some great perfume and wonderful memories. And the shop as some amazing perfumes you can purchase along with gorgeous jewelry- we each found a little something we loved. Highly recommend!

Fun experience - This was an educational and fun event! There are so many different scented oils, including a very unique one called baked bread, that it can seem a bit overwhelming trying to narrow it down to formulate your own personal fragrance. But the staff here encourage you and walk you through the entire process.

I had a so much fun with... - I had a so much fun with this experience. It was a great way to learn about fragrances and discovering how different scents paired with one another. It was also fun engaging with the other participants and bouncing ideas off one another. I was very proud of the cologne that I made. This is definitely something everyone should try when they visit!

Fun and unique experience - This experience was a lot of fun! I booked this last minute, as I was looking for something to do while my husband was in his conference during our trip. I enjoyed learning a little bit about perfume making, and I found it interesting to select the oils and scents and see how they worked together. Dayton led the class, and he was great, explaining what to do and helping when needed - full of energy and very polite. You get to take home the scent you created, along with a goody bag, which is a nice touch. I'd do this again!
