Meet Your Teacher: 

JK DeLapp, L. Ac, DAOM


Hey, I’m JK. My journey into natural perfumery began with a deep love for fragrant woods, flowers, and herbs. After graduating from the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in 2012, I was inspired to explore natural perfumery, turning my passion into a thriving, internationally renowned business, the Rising Phoenix Perfumery.

Being immersed in the natural perfumery world for over a decade, I've seen so many beginning perfumers struggle to make fragrances they're happy with and proud of. The biggest issue lies in the gaps of their understanding, and the key practices and systems they have yet to learn. 

I can't wait to share this knowledge and my passion of natural perfumery with you. I designed this course to help you quickly start creating stunning perfumes that you're thrilled you've made, while avoiding the challenges and stresses that I faced figuring perfumery out on my own over years of trial and error. 

This is the only roadmap you need!

    Ready to Start Making Perfume?
    It’s Time to Take the Next Step...

    Want to work with fragrance, but haven’t been sure where to start?

    Like many, you can search online or in books and try to put bits and pieces

    together over the years, but never feel like you’ve got the whole picture.

    ——

    Perhaps you’ve already started blending perfumes 

    but have faced the frustrations that so many others experience...

    ...You’ve spent time and money trying to figure out the right ingredients 

    and formulations to get the scents you want, but know that there’s pieces missing.

    ——

    Or maybe you’re more advanced but want to branch out into new aromatic practices

    You sense that expanding your perfumery skills could add so much to your craft 

    but don’t know the depth of its resources or where to begin.

    ——

    The answer to all of the above lies before you, and I encourage you to 

    take the next step on your fragrant path and join The Natural Perfumery Course.

    Enroll below and begin your beautiful perfumery journey!


    This course teaches you how to craft many different types and styles of perfume. The world is your oyster with countless possibilities and this is an investment that will pay off 100 fold once you start making amazing creations. There are hundreds of aromatics to choose from, all at very different price levels. So the investment you put in to your practice is dependent on what types of ingredients you choose to work with. 

    We suggest starting out that you at least have 5-15 different essential oils or absolutes of various aromatic plants. Over time you will likely be compelled to gather more once you realize how much fun and fulfilling this art really is. And of course, the more materials you have, the more creative freedom you'll have for playing around and experimenting. Think of each material like adding a new paint color to your pallet, allowing you to create more diverse pieces of art. We advise having at least 15 ml - 1 oz of each material. As you begin the course you will find sourcing information for aromatic materials in the downloads section. 

    For all other materials and ingredients, you will discover what you need throughout the course. At bare minimum, is possible to spend as little as $100 for materials and tools you will use during the course. Some students who already have essential oils and absolutes and other possible materials needed could get away with zero start up costs. Though most students will spend between $100 and $300 on average to get started. Again, it depends on where you want to take your practice and what materials you see yourself working with. For those with expensive tastes for top shelf ingredients like Oud, Sandalwood and Jasmine oils, you could spend $300 - $500 gathering materials that will allow you to make many batches of exquisitely divine perfumes.
