Five-star, two Michelin-Key The Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa in Bath has partnered with new local perfumery Parterre to launch overnight sensory escapes and private masterclasses throughout the year. Focusing on botanical scents and using the highest quality oils, Parterre creates fragrances that evoke the countryside and nature at its best, and hotel guests can now cultivate their very own personal perfume as a memento of their time in Bath.
Between 6th May and 23rd December, you'll will be able to book a private perfume masterclass with Parterre, tailored to your own preferences and knowledge level. Designed to be entertaining, fun and informal, the masterclasses can be added on to any stay and will take place in Parterre's perfumery just steps from the Hotel. You'll learn about the skilled art of perfumery, the olfactory families, natural ingredients, and the way in which different notes work together to form a balanced and deliciously smelling composition. At the end of the workshop, you'll have your own creation and personal scent, with a 50ml bottle to take away with you. A Private Perfume Masterclass with Parterre costs £320 for two guests for a two-and-a-half-hour workshop and 50 ml fragrance bottle.
For those looking for a more extensive experience, the new Fragrant Escape in partnership with Parterre combines a luxurious overnight stay with the private masterclass. Kicking off your sensory journey, you'll be welcomed with a refreshing botanical cocktail, followed by a four-course dinner in Montagu's Mews. The next day, you'll head over to Parterre for an exclusive visit and masterclass, and can choose to finish your stay with a visit to the Spa & Bath House and a GROUND ritual spa treatment, to complete the sensory journey. A Fragrant Escape costs from £1,230 for two people, including overnight stay on a B&B basis, private masterclass and 50 ml fragrance bottle, four-course dinner, and unlimited use of the Spa & Bath House.
