If so what did you think? Was it worth the price? Would you recommend it?

When mixing up your own fragrance, if you added something you didn't like were you able to start over or were you stuck with it? LOL
 

Long time lurker (20 DCL cruises), new poster, but have to respond because no one else did and I did this excursion with my daughter (20) on DCL over last NYE which was their re-opening after the hurricane mess and we loved it! It was awesome! Would do again! You learn about the perfumer’s organ (of scents), smell a lot of their standard perfumes so you can get a sense of what you like. Then you put the on a “white coat” and are directed to how to select your base fragrances (I think you do 3 choices) then you add 2-3 other scents to those and the staff helps you with winnowing down your choices so that you can get your personal scent. Finally you add the other things (notice how I remember the details!) and your final fragrance gets bottled and labeled. Not sure if they do this for all excursions, but we also got a goodie bag of various things. In addition, really nice people run the program.

Thank you for stepping up when nobody else would or could. You need a cape! Upon your recommendation on the next cruise we go on I’m going to try to make St. Maarten a port on my itinerary. My DD is 18 and would love to do this with her.

Thank you! I do have a question for you. I really want to do this excursion but I am also very sensitive to scents especially strong floral scents. They trigger migraines. Is there a strong smell of perfume everywhere? I am going to bring some Imitrex with me - just in case.
