#1 KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO

Melanie Jane, at The Scent Academy, an online perfume training platform.

Perfumery isn’t easy, let’s get that straight, and anyone that tells you otherwise isn’t being truthful.

If you don’t have passion for perfumery and you don’t love what you do, you will not survive this cut-throat industry so it’s best to get out now and find something else to do with your time and money. Sounds harsh I know, but it’s the truth.

It’s hard making perfumes, it’s hard finding good suppliers, it’s hard sourcing quality materials, it’s hard being patient, it’s hard finding your customer, it’s hard marketing yourself. You’ll need to dig deep to keep going when things get tough, and they will get tough. It’s hard getting it right...

BUT, when you get it right, oh boy, the rewards are immeasurable, and it will be that passion for your industry and the love for your craft that will keep you going.
