42 Queen Street, Charleston
The Atelier
A sun-drenched studio surrounded by Delphine's own cutting garden. Step through the gate on Queen Street and into a world of scent, beauty, and quiet artistry.
What Awaits You
The atelier is more than a workshop — it is a sensory sanctuary. Natural light floods through tall windows onto aged wooden worktables. Hundreds of glass bottles line the shelves, each containing an essence extracted from the garden just outside the door.
Delphine's perfumer's organ — a tiered wooden workstation holding over 200 botanical essences — sits at the heart of the room. Here, surrounded by the tools of a centuries-old craft, she composes each fragrance by hand.
Whether you come for a private consultation, a group workshop, or simply to browse the collection, you will leave with a deeper understanding of the invisible art that shapes how we remember the world.
