About Fixlowpeney
Home perfumery, taught by working perfumers.
Fixlowpeney was founded in 2021 by three working indie perfumers who'd been answering the same beginner questions on Reddit for five years and decided to write the course they wished existed. The courses are by working perfumers, the material recommendations link to named third-party suppliers, and we don't sell kits because we'd rather you spend your money on better materials than on our packaging.
Why we don't sell kits
The home-perfumery space is full of overpriced beginner kits with sub-spec materials. We'd rather you spend your money at named professional suppliers — Perfumer's Apprentice, Pell Wall, Hermitage, Eden Botanicals, and others — and get materials that will outlast your beginner phase. We link directly; we don't take affiliate commissions.
How we teach
Every course is taught by a named working perfumer with a published portfolio. Courses are structured, exercise-driven, and paired with material lists at three price points. We assume no prior knowledge; we also don't condescend — you'll be working with the same vocabulary working perfumers use, from week one.
Who we serve
Adult hobbyists who want to make fragrance at home properly. Serious enthusiasts moving from collecting to composing. Aspiring indie perfumers building a foundation before launching a line. People who'd rather learn the craft than buy another celebrity-fronted release.
