MY ONLY FRAGRANCE Launches Scent Experience Learning Program for Schools

MY ONLY FRAGRANCE Launches Scent Experience Learning Program

In an exciting development for the educational landscape, MY ONLY FRAGRANCE, a custom fragrance boutique based in Kyoto, has announced the commencement of its "Scent Experience Learning Program" aimed at schools and educational institutions across Japan, starting June 25, 2026. This initiative, spearheaded by Fragrance Project Co., Ltd., looks to bring the transformative power of scent into educational settings, allowing students to connect with their senses and express themselves creatively through fragrance.

Background of the Program

MY ONLY FRAGRANCE stands out as a bespoke fragrance retailer where customers can create their own unique scent from an astonishing array of over 100 million combinations. The process involves using various fragrances to select ones that resonate personally with the individual, enhancing their awareness of their own feelings and preferences. This hands-on experience encourages participants not only to craft a fragrance but also to articulate their sensory perceptions and share those insights with others.

The idea to expand this unique sensory experience into schools emerged when the company began considering ways to utilize its fragrance design expertise in educational settings. As a noteworthy initiation of this endeavor, a special class was conducted at Mie Prefectural School for the Blind in February 2026, where students had the opportunity to engage in scent activities after a previous visit to the MY ONLY FRAGRANCE Nagoya Sakae store. This interaction served as a springboard for the curriculum, combining learning with a sensory experience that invited students to explore fragrances and express their individual sensations through words.

During this special class, students experienced different scents, articulated their impressions, and mixed various fragrances, allowing them to affirm their sensory experiences and share them collectively.

Program Content

The "Scent Experience Learning Program" is designed to cater to different age groups and educational objectives, with the content tailored accordingly. Key activities include:

1. Scent Sensation Experience: Participants will have hands-on opportunities to sample various scents, capturing the impressions and differences in fragrance intensity, brightness, calmness, sweetness, and freshness based on their personal perceptions.

2. Interactive Dialogue Workshop: This component encourages students to express their feelings evoked by different scents through guided discussions. Questions like “Which scent do you prefer?” and “What feelings does it evoke?” will help participants articulate their emotional responses, emphasizing that there are no right or wrong answers – only personal interpretations.

3. Fragrance Creation Workshop: Students will be guided in combining several fragrances to craft their own signature scent. This creates a tangible representation of their feelings and allows them to take home a unique artifact that embodies their sensory journey.

The flexibility in program design ensures that each school or facility can adapt activities based on their unique needs, objectives, and circumstances. Scheduling, participant numbers, and formats are open for customized arrangements, making the program easily accessible.

Who Can Participate?

The program is open to various educational institutions and community groups interested in sensory learning and expressive activities centered around fragrances. Potential candidates include:

- Elementary schools and special needs schools
- Educational facilities for visually impaired students
- Local governments and educational boards
- Community organizations with an interest in experiential learning and emotional education

Inquiries about the specific content, participant numbers, and scheduling can be made through the dedicated webpage on the Fragrance Project’s corporate site.

Future Outlook

Fragrance Project Co., Ltd. is committed to expanding the scope of MY ONLY FRAGRANCE’s sensory experiences into educational and community engagement sectors. Scent, being an intangible sensation, paves the way for recognizing the diversity of personal feelings and encourages open discussions around them.

Looking ahead, the project will actively seek consultations from schools, facilities, and community groups to design tailored programs that suit their environments. The aim is to continue delivering enriching experiential learning opportunities focused on scents.
