How to choose
- The most intimate: the soy workshop in an apartment, limited to four people.
- The cheapest: the 2-hour session from about $52, or the floral candles (about $73), but these offers have very few reviews.
- The safest value: if the object does not have to be a candle, the perfume workshop is by far the best rated. See the perfume workshop in Paris.
Before you book
Reviews for the candle classes are few: read recent comments. One traveller found the floral workshop unconvincing; the organiser replies that the dried flowers and coconut-shell design is intentional. Check the minimum age and the cancellation terms. Other creative workshops: chocolate workshop and pottery workshop.
