Samantha Buller • Apr 2024

I had such a wonderful time attending Jane’s class. Not only was the perfume making informative and fruitful, Jane is a beautiful character. It was an uplifting experience. I’d attended again solo or with a group of friends. Sam

Charly • Mar 2024

I absolutely loved this class. It was well paced, and I enjoyed the freedom to create. It was such a wonderful spot the room was cool, bright and smelt amazing. Central location in Subiaco, plenty of parking and coffee nearby. Jane was a great teacher and I learnt a lot.

Teacher's response

Thanks so much Charly for taking the time to write a review and share your experience. I'm so glad you enjoyed the class (and Subiaco!), it was a pleasure to host you.

The class was so enjoyable, Jane was an amazing teacher. She explained the process in an easy to understand way, and then let the class get creative. Would and will highly recommend to others.

Teacher's response

Thanks so much for writing a review Kirsten. I'm so glad you enjoyed the class and being creative. It really is a fun thing to do, so very glad you could join me. Hope to see you back again for another session! Jane

Emily Waldron • Feb 2024

Jane was fantastic, I love this workshop and came home with such a lovely fragrance perfume! Jane was helpful and so lovely, she talked us through the process and lets us create our own scents with help when we needed itwe had a wide variety of oils to smell and choose for our perfumes, and a wide range of bottle types to put our perfumes in. Will be recommending this workshop.

Teacher's response

Thank you so much Emily for your review. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed enjoyed workshop and the choices available. It was lovely to host you. Jane

Mukti Biyani • Feb 2024

Beautiful ambience. Jane is a lovely and patient guide.

I loved making my own personal blend.

Thank you.

Emma Crisp • Feb 2024

Jane was amazing! With a Biochemist background, it was very educational and Jane herself was personable and patient! Will definitely purchase the class as gift for family and friends :)

Caroline Wigley • Jan 2024

The experience today was one of astounding positivity and joy. Jane Hough was a bubbly person and eager to impart her knowledge. She is a mobile teacher and came fully equipped with the essential oils and skills of making a great fragrance. The necklace with little pads for the oils came with it. It was reasonably priced. I highly recommend Jane who can come to you and she also does workshops in a Subiaco venue.
Thank you Jane.

Dominique Seabrook • Dec 2023

Had a lovely experience - it was a wonderful set up with clear instructions & helpful teacher & came away with a beautiful product♥️

Teacher's response

Thank you for your review Dominique. It was such a pleasure to have you join the class and I'm so glad you enjoyed the experience and your perfume.

Siobhan Kirwan • Dec 2023

Gorgeous venue, wonderful atmosphere, class filled with a range of ages and everyone had fun! Jane was absolutely lovely and made sure everyone was having fun, and the best part is we weren’t rushed out the door at the end, and could stay back and check out the shop a bit more. Definitely going back!

Teacher's response

Hi Siobhan and thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the experience and the time to "linger" at the end! It was a joy to have you join the class and lovely to hear that you had a fun time.

Margaret • Dec 2023

Jane the teacher was great. Explained everything well, was bubbly and friendly. Venue was well presented with lots of choices to make our diffusers.
Really enjoyed the class.
Only downside was accessibility. I didn’t investigate thoroughly but our access was by stairs, not sure if there is a lift for anyone who can’t use them.

Teacher's response

Thanks Margaret for your review and I'm so glad you enjoyed the class. I'm afraid the building is an old one in Subiaco without a lift, so unfortunately the only access to my first floor studio is via the stairs. This is outlined in my confirmation email, however sometimes this goes to your junk folder so may have been missed (or it may have not been passed on by person who booked the class). I will, however, see if I can make this more obvious on the class listing details. Thanks for the suggestion and for taking the time to write a review.

Trish Yang • Dec 2023

We booked a private class and it was a lot of fun! Jane is a very friendly instructor. We were running a bit late and she was very accommodating. We had a lot of different scents to try and work with, and the instructions were clear and easy to understand - you can make your own concoction or follow a preset recipe. We could’ve easily played around with all the scents for 2 hours but 1 hour is sufficient - though I would suggest getting there earlier/on time so you don’t eat into play time. The location is perfect - right next to all the restaurants in Subiaco, so we went for dinner right after! In short, the class was good value for money and very enjoyable :)

Teacher's response

Thanks for your review Trish. I'm so glad you enjoyed the class, and it was such a pleasure to host your delightful group! Thanks for the suggestion regarding lengthening the class time. I do aim not to rush anyone out the door at the end, just in case you need more time, however I also appreciate you had a dinner booking straight afterwards. Watch out for 2024 classes, though, as I plan to add some extra time to these! Jane :)

Cheryl Hogan • Dec 2023

We can't thank Jane enough for the warmest welcome. She was very good at explaining everything and interacted with our group.
The venue is small yet really nicely presented. Coming up the stairs and onto a balcony before you go inside gave me a very homey feel.
I learnt a lot about scents and how to put them together. It might seem expensive for a small size diffuser however once you have done the class you realise it is good value.
I loved that there were candles etc to buy. I think we will go again and make a candle. So much fun

Teacher's response

Thanks so much for writing a review Cheryl - it truly was such a pleasure to host your group and I'm so glad you all enjoyed the experience.

Ann-Sophie Dahl • Dec 2023

My friends and I had an amazing time making our own perfume. Jane was lovely and amazing
Highly recommend

Teacher's response

Thank you Ann-Sophie for your review and booking a private class. I'm so glad you all enjoyed the experience. It was a pleasure to host you! Jane

Alecia Raith-Riches • Nov 2023

The class was amazing, we learnt so much about blending essential oils and their unique properties in a relaxed calm environment. There were options to add small crystals or dried flowers inside and everything was personalised. The class size was small and all questions were answered with lots of valuable advice given.

Teacher's response

Thanks Alecia for taking the time to write a review. I’m so glad you enjoyed your perfume making experience. It was a pleasure to have you both in the studio. Jane

Lucie Ginestet • Nov 2023

Susan Appleyard • Oct 2023

Thank you Jane so much for such an enjoyable workshop. My friend and I enjoyed making the candles and we will book again to take our daughters with us.
The venue was fantastic and there was plenty of food and drink available to make it a special high tea indeed. Everyone was friendly in the class and happy to chat with each other, even though we had just meet.
I would certainly recommend this class to anyone who would love to make their own scented candles. Thank you.

Teacher's response

Thank you Susie for your lovely review. I'm so glad you enjoyed the experience (and those candles are divine!). It would be a pleasure to welcome you both back with your daughters.

From entering the private room I was quite overwhelmed with how beautiful everything was arranged and organised we did a high tea with bubbles and shacks and made our very own candles, with our own personal aromas. Jane our host was an absolute delight, her knowledge and time she spent explaining and helping was outstanding ! Whilst our candles set we then had more champagne and a beautifully presented snacks which were delightful the whole experience was with out a doubt amazing you give to try. I loved it so much I bought everything to start making my own candles. I will definitely go back

Teacher's response

Thank you Mandi for taking the time to write this review. I'm so glad you enjoyed the candle making and the refreshments. It was such a pleasure having you both join the class and I would love to welcome you back!

It was our first perfume class ever. We really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was great, lots of different types of cute things around the class. Lots of oils types to choose from to make your own scent. The teacher was very nice, friendly and bubbly.

I booked this class as a special birthday present for my lifelong best friend and I to do together - and we were both delighted with it!

The class is friendly and easy to follow, and the teacher is most knowledgeable and happy to assist.

I only wish I’d known about this sooner! Can’t recommend this class highly enough.

Thank you, Susan

Teacher's response

Thank you Susan for your lovely review. I'm so glad you both enjoyed that experience and thank you for your recommendation. It was such a pleasure meeting you both and I was thrilled to be able to host your special birthday celebration. Jane

Hayley • Aug 2023

Absolutely fantastic class! Loved the studio & location & Jane was so easy going & organised & had everything beautifully set up. I loved that the class was smaller & time was taken to talk about the fragrances along with hints & tips about bottling before we got stuck in too as I have been to classes elsewhere where there was very little instruction or instruction given so we really appreciated that. Also great value for money…We will definitely be back!

Teacher's response

Thank you so much Hayley for the lovely review and for joining yesterday’s class - it was fabulous having you all in the studio and I look forward to “designing” a special work event with you too!

Kate Baker • Aug 2023

What a great presenter: Fun, full of life, excellent at imparting knowledge of a subject which she obviously loves. Good value and a large variety of essences to choose from. Think we'll be back for another session. Thank you!

Teacher's response

Thank you Kate for your kind and thoughtful review. I loved having you both join me yesterday, and also very glad your mother-in-law is so good with surprises! Hopefully was better than bungee

The class was absolutely amazing. Jane was a super knowledgeable instructor and gave an amazing insight into the science behind the perfume. This class was a gift to someone very dear to me and they absolutely loved it. Not only did they receive a sentimental gift but also an unforgettable experience and a new skill.

Khanya Mahlangu • Jul 2023

We booked a private perfume workshop for a friend’s birthday and it was honestly soo lovely. The teacher was very accommodating to our group and allowed us to sing happy birthday with a cake for our friend at the end of class. I learnt a lot about perfumes and she was very helpful when I started messing up! I ended up with a beautiful sweet scent thanks to her guidance! I recommend you book a class for a birthday or just a group activity.

Teacher's response

Thank you for booking a private class Khanya and for your lovely review. It was such a pleasure to host your gorgeous group. I'm so glad you enjoyed yourselves!

Lovely, relaxed, engaging and informative afternoon.
A wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
Beautiful, quaimt znd serene venue with the most deliciois aromas wafting through the air as you ascend the stairs.

But most importantly you get to learn so much and to take home a beautiful memorabilia
We highly recommend the experience as a gift to a friend or self-reward. It's so worth it
