Enter the world of natural perfumery with perfumer Susan Farber, who has led perfume-making workshops and private experiences on the Central Coast since 2018. You'll create your own perfume from natural essences Susan has carefully sourced and evaluated, including essential oils, absolutes, isolates, and special blends she has created herself. 

A natural perfume is never still. As it evaporates, it moves from a bright opening to a blooming heart and a deep, lingering base, revealing new layers along the way. On you, it becomes a scent no one else can wear in quite the same way.

Susan guides every experience step by step, so no experience is needed. Trained by master perfumers and certified in aromatherapy, she helps you choose the notes that resonate with you. She has been featured in Santa Barbara Wedding Style, the Santa Ynez Valley Star, and the Santa Maria Sun.

Perfect for couples, elopements, bridal showers, bachelorette parties, birthdays and sweet sixteens, sorority and girls' weekends, holiday gatherings, retreats, and corporate events. Susan comes to your vacation rental, winery, hotel, home, or workplace, or you can visit her private studio in Buellton.

Serving Santa Barbara, Solvang, Montecito, the Santa Ynez Valley, and California's Central Coast.

Welcome to Sol Aromatics. I chose the name SOL for the Spiral of Life, an ancient symbol of growth and transformation.

I have loved fragrance since I was a little girl, blending scents for hours with a perfume kit my mother gave me. Today I create natural perfumes, custom aromatherapy blends, and scent experiences that celebrate the beauty and power of scent: how it brings back memories, stirs emotion, sparks creativity, and adds joy to everyday life.

I draw on the richness of the botanical world in everything I make, and each offering is designed to support your well-being and invite you to explore fragrance in your own way.
