Very well organised and with clear information.
Personally, I feel that this course is excellent value for money, and unlike other online courses or much lengthier certified courses, this course is distinctive in just how much content it fits into the 5 days, as well as the amount of hands on experience, and the ability to tap into John's vast knowledge.

I very much enjoyed the course, and in particular the delivery by John, which was well paced, and who masterfully combines complex technical information with humour, and interesting stories/examples that help you to retain the knowledge. The quality and breadth of content material within the course pack was/is excellent, and a real value add bonus was the spreadsheets for calculating formulations. Honestly, I would do this course over and again! It was a joy, and has ignited my onward studies not only in aroma chemistry, but the broader subject of organic chemistry.

John was extremely knowledgeable and a fun teacher! Making the perfume was great and the theory aspects were very interesting.

I was fascinated by everything that we were taught and by doing the practical parts. I could have listened to John for such a long time. He had so much knowledge to share.

The knowledge transfer from John was outstanding, easy to digest and so wide-ranging covering so many aspects of creating a perfume and beyond (multidisciplinary), an absolute masterclass and so enjoyable!

Best part of the course was how John delivered the material and executed and organised the course. Best bespoke perfumery course the UK has to offer.

I heard about the course when I visited the Cotswold Perfumery shop in Bourton-on-the-Water. It was excellent. John’s enthusiasm for his subject made the course. If only he had been my chemistry teacher, I might have learnt something at school!

Jane

It was an inspirational day thanks to John's teaching style and enthusiasm. It has inspired me to continue my interest in making liquid soap and possibly doing the second course at some stage. It was good to have a small number of people on the course to enable people to ask questions. Thank you to John and the team for a wonderful day.
