The Art of Perfume: Lecture & Olfactory Experience
In a world of thousands of new fragrances, are we becoming better at choosing — or simply better at consuming? Musk. Ambroxan. Cashmeran. Projection. “Notes.” But what do these words actually mean — and how do you find a fragrance that doesn’t just smell good, but smells like you?

About the event
We’re delighted to welcome Džiugas Daumantas Čiras back to Marblehead for a special perfume experience during his brief visit from Lithuania.
Džiugas is a perfumery educator, founder of Maison Fantomus, and an ambassador for Lilium.Parfum, a Lithuanian niche fragrance brand.
From perfume as a symbol of status to an essential part of our everyday identity, the world of fragrance has transformed dramatically.
In this interactive lecture and olfactory experience, we’ll go behind the scenes of perfumery, explore how fragrances shape our identity, memories and emotions, and learn how to navigate today’s endless “sea of scents.”
What will you learn and experience?
The origins of perfumery and the scents of different eras.
Identity and expression: How perfume shapes our self-expression.
The connection between scent, memory, and emotion.
"Fast Fashion Fragrance": Who dictates our desires?
Trends for the year 2026.

Duration: 2 hours
