About Experimental Perfume Club

Experimental Perfume Club was founded in 2016 by French perfumer Emmanuelle Moeglin as a London-based fragrance concept built around education, personalization, and hands-on scent creation. Moeglin says she started the brand in London because the city was more open to new concepts, and EPC first grew through workshops before expanding into blendable perfumes and retail products.

The brand is known for its customisable approach: customers can learn about raw materials, build their own formulas, and combine pre-blended scents rather than just buying finished perfumes. EPC opened a flagship boutique in Covent Garden and built visibility through early retail partnerships with Liberty, Selfridges, and Harvey Nichols. It also operates as a self-funded, independent business with UK and France entities supporting production, logistics, and partnerships.

EPC's offer sits between niche perfumery and fragrance education. Its identity is less about a fixed house style than about modular, wearable compositions that can be used alone or layered. The brand has positioned itself as a modern, experimental perfume studio that makes the creative side of perfumery accessible without losing a luxury feel.

  • The brand tends to favour clean construction, easy layering, and a polished modern profile that works for wearers who want to participate in the perfume-making process
  • It is more concept-driven than mass-appeal, but still accessible enough for everyday use

How It Compares

Who It's For

Best For

  • Fragrance lovers who enjoy layering
  • Shoppers interested in learning perfumery
  • People who want a personalised signature scent
  • Daytime wear
  • Gift buyers looking for something interactive

Strengths & Weaknesses

Strengths

  • Highly original concept
  • Strong educational angle
  • Good layering and personalisation
  • Feels premium without being precious

Weaknesses

  • Less suited to people wanting loud statement perfumes
  • A modular concept can feel unclear to first-time buyers
  • Not a huge mainstream distribution footprint

Brand Evolution

EPC began as workshops and a learning platform, then moved into blendable perfume products and a fuller retail offer. Over time it shifted from being mainly a perfume education concept to a broader luxury fragrance business with its own boutique and international fulfilment. The core idea has stayed the same: make perfumery hands-on and personal rather than purely transactional.

Quick Verdict

Strong if you want fragrance as a creative hobby, not just a product. If you want instantly recognisable designer crowd-pleasers, EPC is probably too conceptual.
