Cotswold Perfumery, Bourton-on-the-Water

I would really, really recommend the courses here. John, the Master Perfumer, is that rare combination of very passionate about what he does but also very personable and willing to share, so you spend a day immersed in a world of wonder and delight and learning….and beautiful fragrances. It was one of the best things I have ever done !

As an 18 year old with a keen interest in chemistry and perfumery, the one day course was very enjoyable and provided me with a wealth of new knowledge. The day has a perfect balance of theory and application; the setting is simply idyllic and John teaches with an unparalleled passion and expertise. I would highly recommend to someone of any age who would love to gain an insight into the world of perfumery and have a try at composing their own scent!
