Most candle making experiences are fast-paced & impersonal. At Nose Best we take a thoughtful approach when teaching guests how to create their own candle. We know that most people have never tried this craft and it can be intimidating to most.
It's important to us that we instill confidence in every individual that takes our candle making class. You'll learn how to properly smell fragrance, make complex blends, and construct your candle with expert-level precision.
​
You'll be supervised by one of our pro-candle makers so if you have any questions they'll be there to help. Are you ready to discover the art form of candle making? Join us for one of our weekly classes today.

All of our classes are +16 and beginner friendly
The Candle Class Experience
Step 1
Check-in for class
Enter the Nose Best gift shop to show your tickets to the store associate. Once everyone is checked-in you'll be escorted to our hidden studio space.
Step 2
Enter the Speakeasy
Once inside of the candle making studio you can choose your seats and get settled in. The instructor will first have you select your jars and start the candle making process.
Step 3
Make your candle
You'll start by smelling fragrances from our curated selection. 10 high-quality fragrances with up to 175 various combinations to make your candle truly unique. Once you pick your scents you'll finally wick, mix, and pour your candle.
Step 4
Enjoy your time
While your candle cools in the 2nd hour, you can choose your own adventure: Enjoy a beverage, design your candle label, play a board game, explore the Bushwick neighborhood, or shop in our store with 10% off.
Plan A Day In Bushwick!
If you're going to come all this way to make a candle or perfume with us, you might as well explore what our beautiful neighborhood has to offer.
