"Such a lovely day learning all about soap making using natural ingredients. The process is very interesting and Diane is a great teacher. This workshop was exactly what I needed and I can’t wait to try this on my own with the help of Diane’s written notes that I got to take home. Thanks Diane for a wonderful day and looking forward to receiving my soap."

Barbara reviewed: Soap Making for Beginners

"What a wonderful day soap making in a calm and relaxing place. I was curious about the soap making process and Diane explained this brilliantly in an understandable and logical way. The afternoon spent making the soap linked up really well with the theory. Thank you Diane for a superb day surrounded by amazing smells."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Many thanks Barbara for taking the time to write this review, I really appreciate it. I'm so glad you enjoyed your day and hope you continue to make your own soap. Enjoy it when you receive it, I think it looks and smells divine. Again many thanks for your kind words. "

Sarah Griffiths reviewed: Soap Making for Beginners

"What a lovely day I had with Diane. After a warm welcome, Diane chatted with me about the various stages and processes of soap making. She was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to explain the science behind it all in a very interesting and accessible way. I was an absolute beginner to soap making and had seen various kits online but wanted to have a greater understanding of how and what I could achieve. I couldn’t have wished for a better tutor. I made some heavenly lavender soap in a very relaxed setting but precision, attention to detail and safety were paramount in Diane’s kitchen. The course fulfilled all my expectations and more. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to venture into soap making. "

Aroma Natural responded:

"Sarah, what can I say... huge thank you for such an amazing review, and for taking the time to write it. It really does help other people to hear that you have had a good time and learnt how to make a lovely soap. I would also like to thank you as you took me out of my comfort zone by using keffir for the first time. Enjoy your soap and thank you once again. It was lovely to have you here and to meet your husband. "

Jackie reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"4 of us on a birthday celebration descended on Diane for a fabulous day of discovery of the art of making perfume. Diane was wonderful, so informative, kind and patient with us all. Diane demonstrated a lot of knowledge and gave us a well balanced day so we didn’t get overloaded with aromas, and she had plenty to choose from. We all left at the end of the day with our own unique bottle filled creations. A perfume we had made ourselves to our own tastes. Lovely lovely day thank you Diane "

Aroma Natural responded:

"Oh my goodness, thank you for such a lovely review. So pleased you all enjoyed yourselves, you made my job so easy. It was a pleasure to join in with your special celebration and thank you for sharing the birthday cake with me. You all made lovely perfume, so I hope you enjoy wearing it. "

Kate reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"Making my own signature scent was something I'd wanted to do for a long time and this day didn't disappoint. Diane is so friendly and welcoming and she's helpful without steering, leaving you free to explore for yourself and make something that is really all about you. Would absolutely recommend! "

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Kate, thank you for the lovely review, I really appreciate it. It was a pleasure to watch you building your perfume and the final aroma was amazing. Hope you enjoy wearing it. Thanks again for taking the time to write this review. "

Annie Garcia reviewed: Soap Making for Beginners

"Diane and her course is fantastic. I had her whole attention and I found this just so special. I could ask any question, nothing was too much trouble for Diane. It was fantastic to have such an expert running this course. I had a fun day and left feeling confident I could make soap. I learnt tons from her and am quite keen on another course like the perfume one. Thank you so much Diane!"

Aroma Natural responded:

"Thank you Annie for such a great review. It was a pleasure to teach you all about soap making and share the day with you. You certainly made a great loaf of gorgeous smelling soap which I'm sure you will enjoy using. I would be very happy to teach you how to make a Perfume and look forward to seeing you again. Once again thank you for your kind words and good luck with your soap making in the future. "

"I would highly recommend this course. I bought this course as a birthday present for two friends and it was perfect. My friends and I had a lovely day with Diane.

Victoria Vestey reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"We had the most wonderful day with Diane. Diane was warm and welcoming. We chatted through the day and processes of making perfume on arrival and then we began. It was fabulous .... and so informative. Diane was so gentle and encouraged us to follow our 'noses' . A wonderful experience that I can not recommend more highly.."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Thank you for such a lovely review. It was a pleasure to meet you and your sister Buffy and spend a day designing and making your perfumes with you. Must say they were both amazing perfumes, I hope you enjoy wearing them."

Christine Ellis reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"I had a lovely day with Diane! I am so proud of my perfume, which met with the approval of my chums later that evening who declared it to be ‘gentle’ (a word Diane used), ‘warm’ ‘subtly spiced’ - just what I was aiming for. I had lots of different aromas and essences to work with, which was initially overwhelming, but under Diane’s steady eye (and nose!) I eventually developed a recipe which produce a beautiful perfume. Thank you Diane!"

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Christine Many thanks for your kind words and for taking the time to write a review for me, I really appreciate it. So very pleased you are happy with the perfume you created, you must have been very happy when your friends liked it to. I really enjoyed the day I spent with you. Again many thanks."

Rebecca Upson reviewed: Soap Making for Beginners

"I wanted to do a soap making course in person so I could actually see the different stages. I'm so glad I did the course with Diane. She welcomed me with a cup of tea and we had a chat about what I wanted to achieve. Having discovered I was interested to learn as much as possible she spent some time explaining the process and had written notes ready for me to take home. It was very relaxed and I felt able to ask numerous questions which Diane answered with a great knowledge and understanding of the process. After lunch I was guided through making a batch of my own soap. The process involves caustic solutions and Diane provided excellent guidance and advice to ensure this was done safely. It was also helpful to have her expert eye at the trace stage, ensuring I got the mix to just the right point before adding scent and pouring into the mould. The day was very successful and I achieved all I wanted to. I will certainly be buying some ingredients to have a go myself at home and have some notes on things I might try. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in making soap or just wanting an enjoyable days activity in a friendly, relaxed and safe setting with the added bonus of creating your own unique soap"

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Rebecca Wow, what a lovely review, thank you so much, I really appreciate it. So pleased you enjoyed your day with me and learned as much as you needed to have the confidence to carry on making soap at home. Lovely to meet you and spend the day with you. Enjoy your soap when you receive it."

Omer Elhassan reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"This was a gift for my wife's birthday. It did not disappoint. Dianne was so kind and attentive, she walked us through the theory of perfumery over a brew in her lovely farm house. We then moved onto the practical mixing and testing of smells, hundreds of combinations to make. All the while guided by Dianne and at our own pace."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Thank you Omer for taking the time to write this review, I really appreciate it. It was so lovely to meet you and your wife and spend the day designing and making perfume and to smell your finished creation - it was amazing."

peggy reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"A very interesting day learning about blending my own perfume - though it was quite hard to make up my mind. A lovely relaxing way to try something I haven’t done before. My new fragrance is mellowing nicely so I am looking forward to using it . ?"

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Peggy Thank you for taking the time to write this review, I really appreciate it. It was lovely to meet you and spend the day watching you design and perfect your Perfume, hope you enjoy wearing it. Best wishes Diane"

Imogen Blake reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"I booked this course for my mum's 60th birthday, and we had the best time thanks to Diane. Diane was so warm and welcoming, and we felt immediately at home. She was patient with us when we had no clue what we were doing - but soon learned lots about the basics of perfume making. I had expected to make a pretty dodgy perfume, but I love what I made and now use it every day! Highly recommend it if you're looking for a new activity to try."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Imogen Thank you for taking the time to write this review for me and thank you for the lovely, kind words. It was a pleasure to have you and your mum here making perfume and how wonderful your perfumes were - pleased you are wearing them. Again, thank you its very much appreciated."

Karen Arrand reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"This is a great experience for anyone who wants to know more about the intriguing world of perfume. And you takeaway the perfect momento - a unique perfume made by you. Thank you Diane for showing me how to blend and make a perfume. Your kindly patience has given me the confidence I was lacking before. A fragrantly lovely day."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Karen, thank you for the lovely review. It was a pleasure to have you here for the day and I'm pleased to hear you now have the confidence to blend and play with your lovely essential oils. I must say your final bottled perfume smelt amazing."

Gilly Case reviewed: Skincare Workshops using Herbal Infusions

"Another wonderful course with Diane. I joined her and two other ladies previously for a soap making workshop. This time I attended a Skincare workshop which was so interesting and informative. I loved making the three natural products; my favourite is the balm which has so many different uses. Diane is very knowledgeable and an excellent teacher; I am looking forward to making more products at home for myself and friends."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Gilly, thank you for taking the time to say these words, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you enjoyed your day and found it informative, hopefully, you will carry on making your own skincare. Thank you."

Ceara Mongan reviewed: Skincare Workshops using Herbal Infusions

"There was a delay in me attending this course, and when I arrived for a skin making couse Dianne was prepared for a Business Making workshop. I had previously attended a soap one to one, and was told that if I booked the cosmetics course on that day, that she would also give me the information for the business course. I had to rush back on the day, and due to the mixup regarding the course booked, I only ended up making one 100ml lotion. My family were hoping for some goodies when I returned ? Dianne is very welcoming and knowledgeable, but for £99 one to one workshops, you could definitely make more items, or a couple of soaps in that time."

Aroma Natural responded:

"Hi Ceara, thank you for your review. I am sorry you could only stay for 3hrs instead of the full 5-6hrs which this workshop is, and would have given you ample time to make the three products instead of the one. The One to One Business workshop is also a full on 5-6hr day so I'm glad we were able to fit in as much as we did in the 3hrs. Hope you enjoy using your moisturiser."

Ceara Mongan reviewed: Skincare Workshops using Herbal Infusions

Louise Pope reviewed: Perfume Making in Norfolk

"I attended the Perfume Making course run by Diane. It was a great experience run by a lovely lady. Diane is very patient and knowledgeable I thoroughly enjoyed the day, and made perfume that I love and wear. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn something new and have a great day out in the process."

Jill Gibson reviewed: Soap making

"I attended this course on 19th September 2017 with two family members. Diane was very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable, taking us all safely through each step involved in the process. We came away with a certificate for the day and a wealth of information so we could continue our soap making journey at home if we so wished. We all had great fun and produced some lovely soap, which Diane posts out to you. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone interested in cold press soak making."
