The Enfleurage Kit
In addition to in-person workshops this year, we are offering an economical and efficient way for one to learn Enfleurage and begin making beautifully scented body butters, pomades, and solid perfumes right away at home. Our Enfleurage Kit with a stack of authentic hand made chassis, comes with all the tools needed to get one started, including Japanese pomade lifter, angled silicone spreader, natural bristle brush, 1 lb of organic vegetal corpse, hand whipper, and Charle-Pan's instruction booklet "The Little Book of Enfleurage", plus a free virtual or in person workshop, The Half Day Art of Enfleurage workshop. Complete Authentic Enfleurage Kit with instruction, $850. Domestic and overseas shipping available. Call to order or email, charlepan@cherryvalleylilacs.com.
Enfleurage Classes, In-Person Workshops
1) The Art of Enfleurage, a half day hands on workshop at the lilac farm. Covers how to create beautiful pomades and solid perfumes, delicate moisturizers, massage butter and foot scrubs through the ancient craft. The course is $185 per person, given in a private workshop of two persons. The course is free of charge when you purchase the Enfleurage Kit we build for you at the farm, and alternately may be attended online through private live video conferencing if you can't make it to the Lilac Farm.
2) Full Day Enfleurage Workshop for Private parties of Two or more Students. This full day workshop not only teaches the complete method for creating lovely naturally scented solid perfumes and moisturizing pomades, from any flower, but also includes small scale basic extraction methods of obtaining the essential oil absolute from the pomade. Depending on the time of the year we will be using various flowers in bloom such as Viburnum, hyacinth, lilacs, roses, peonies, phlox, or violets. $325 per person, 2 person private workshop, includes farm fresh lunch. Only $145 per person with purchase of the Enfleurage Kit.
3) Three Day Essential Oil Absolute Extraction Workshop. This workshop encompasses the second phase extraction from pomade to essential oil. It is somewhat technical, but we start with very basic chemistry principles and work from there. You will learn on specific equipment designed for this purpose, and will purchase the equipment upon which you will learn. The Full Day Enfleurage Workshop is a prerequisite. Call for details.
Please contact me if you are interested in attending any of our tours, lectures or workshops. I will have accommodations for up to four guests at the farm, and a local B&B is also available within walking distance, The Limestone Mansion. Look us up on the map, Cherry Valley Lilacs in Cherry Valley, NY, 13320.
I have rediscovered and seek to revitalize the art of Enfleurage. My wish is to lift the lid of secrecy and teach Enfleurage to the world, making Enfleurage a common household craft, such as canning, baking, playing the piano, or writing poetry.
BOOK a 2 hour Enfleurage Lecture and beautiful slide show on site at your location for groups and interested parties.
