Workshops.

From hands-on fragrance creation workshops to understanding the intricate details of legal and regulatory requirements, Simple Essentials ensures you leave with the tools and knowledge to succeed.
Essential Mentoring Programme Workshops.
Our Essential Mentoring Programme workshops start at just £75, offering accessible and valuable training for all business stages. Each workshop is designed to provide both practical, hands-on experience and expert mentoring to help you confidently build and grow your business.
Your Teaching Team.
Kim Lahiri, with a wealth of nearly 50 years of experience within the industry, feels it is important to share this knowledge and in doing so empower the receiver to confidently step forward with their new brand. She trained as a teacher and examiner within the complementary therapy skincare fields travelling extensively globally spreading the knowledge and skills. From Japan, to China, to USA, to Australia her ambition to train with high standards and as an instrument of excellence was truly realised.
As a member of the teachers and examiners at The Raworth Centre in Dorking for nearly 8 years and then latterly at Neal’s Yard in Covent Garden, Kim’s enthusiasm instilled confidence and willingness to learn in her students.
Having run her own creative workshops over the years, these wonderful days return with a series of workshops based in Cornwall. Why not join us and enjoy the experience!

Simple Essentials’ unique fragrance formulations are based on Kim’s extensive knowledge of the therapeutic nature of fragrance, developing perfumes and signature fragrances with a “therapeutic twist”. Focus is on natural rather than synthetic, creating the most exquisite formulations that smell alive and vibrant. Our knowledge of complementary health therapies together with our formulation skills, contribute to creating unique natural synergies. All our formulations are bespoke and are created to a specific brief dictated by you, the client. We specialise in using rare, unusual and exotic essential oils, extracts and raw materials within blends, to create matchless fragrances with strong and interesting marketing rationale behind them. Developing fragrances requires specialist skills, in particular a deep understanding of the relationships between the multitudes of fragrance components.
