Recent reviews of Room Smellies Workshop: Reed Diffuser, Room Spray and Hop Bag
5/5 from Anne-Marie Kilgour, attended Jun 2026: We did the Room Smellies Workshop. Had a wonderful afternoon blending essential oils and creating a reed diffuser, room spray & hops bag. Bruce was very warm & welcoming. It’s was a lovely thing to do & we will definitely be booking on the perfume one next. I recommend parking at Morrisons, paying the £2.50 online to give 3 hours parking.
5/5 from Nicola Turner, attended Mar 2026: Teacher was fantastic; very engaging and coached us through making the products. We created a hops bag, diffuser and room spray. We were given the opportunity to mix the oils together to create our own fragrances which was really good fun. Would highly recommend
5/5 from Saffron Harrison, attended Jan 2026: On our Room Smellies Workshop Bruce was really knowledgeable about all the different oils and also helped with blends. He encouraged everyone to try different oils which they wouldn’t normally choose to see if they liked them as part of a blend. We loved that you could pick 3 different oils for each item.
