In 2009 Aromantic's Kolbjorn Borseth won the prestigious CAM Expo Award for Oustanding Achievement (PDF) for his contribution to the complementary and natural therapy industry. Here's what the people who nominated him have to say:
"Kolbjorn is an inspiration to the industry and promotes all aspects of his beliefs and knowledge, wisely, eloquently and patiently. He has inspired many people through his work and through his inspiration and guidance, I personally have been able to overcome many obstacles in the setting up of my organics business. He is a true alchemist of the modern age, and there is no finer man to consult in my knowledge who exists today who knows or holds Kolbjorn's host of wisdom on all elements of the alchemic world. His teaching is invaluable and he is always on hand with no gain to himself, to serve others; worthy of an honour indeed after a lifetime commitment." April Westley, Cupcake Organic Divine Skin Care |
"Kolbjorn has given so much to us all that I think he deserves recognition for all his hard work. He has given the "Little Person" like me inspiration, to start a business that I never thought possible. I know that the raw materials I use I can trust. His ethics are second to none. Thank you Kolbjorn for your continued support and inspiration." Diane |
"I really hope he wins. I know for a fact that I would never have been able to achieve anything without him and Aromantic. I'm now preparing to start my own halal skincare website and I'm so excited! So a huge pat on the back to ALL of you at Aromantic from me." Jannah Khan |
"I voted for Kolbjorn straight away. He truly is a very decent and very genuine guy. I am very inspired by him and by what he does. Just made 20 pots of lavender foot cream for an event in our town hall. Many thanks to you and your team. Congratulations to Kolbjorn! All the best to his and all your future." Luzia |
"I was DELIGHTED to nominate Kolbjorn. From the very first day I attended a course run by him in London a couple of years ago now - it literally changed the way I look at natural products. I make ALL my own creams, body butters - soap bombs - you name it! as a direct result of my contact with Aromantic. Kolbjorn is a most worthy candidate and I added my own comments about how impressed I am with not only Kolbjorn but of all the wonderful products he offers via Aromantic. I do hope he wins - he is a very worthy candidate. Good luck to him!!! I ONLY use Aromantic preparations and have been very busy over the past months making gifts to give to friends and family at Christmas. I'm sure they will like them - I would be if someone made me handmade gifts with such lovely natural creams and pure oils! Please let me know how the voting goes! Best wishes to you all at Aromantic!" Jenny Oram-Weaver |
"Without Kolbjorn I'd never have had the courage to try all the blending, making and producing of natural products I now do successfully! Thanks." Heidi |
" He has really inspired me and opened up so much for me..... I am a pharmacist and have worked in natural medicines for over 25 years, but I have learned SO much from Kolbjorn - especially his outstanding work with oils. I am also so very impressed with the service that Aromantic provides to many people who 'want to have a go' and how he supports so many people to start something new and fulfil their wishes! Good luck & I do hope he is successful." Judi |
"I have nominated Kolbjorn and so I wish him the best of luck as he deserves an award." Magna Aidoo |
"What a great idea. I would love to see Kolbjorn receive this award. I have added my nomination." Nora |
"I never met Kolbjorn personally but he had been for me a constant light of inspiration during all these years that I had been working with Natural Cosmetics. I only spoke with on the phone for a couple of times, many years ago, but still his voice full of inspiration and motivation for me to start my own recipes and developments still resound in my ears. And through all his books, articles and exclusive selection of ingredients, definitely that for me he is my reliable guide. He deserves this award and more. Maybe one day I will be lucky to meet him. I don't know, I am in Spain and is not easy to move to Forres. But who knows, maybe one day it can happen. I will love it." Maris Stella Zambrano, Spain |
"Kolbjorn has made a huge difference to many, right down to the smallest snippet of information. He is forever tirelessly sharing information, researching the latest ingredient trends, providing workshops, access to ingredients and written information. Without Kolbjorn's dedication many people would never have had the opportunity to make their own healthy cosmetics or grow their passion to become successful businesses. It is his inspiration that has helped many of us. Keep up the good work, cheers from Australia." Sharon Elvin, Platypus Dreams, Australia |
"I am clearly seeing Kolbjorn up on the podium in all his loveliness!! He's gonna do it, yeah!!" Shelagh B, Elgin |
"Kolbjorn has inspired me from the first time I met him on an exhibition in Olympia more than 10 years ago, he sold me some raw materials and I started making some very basic products for myself and to give away to my regular clients. Now I am thinking of using my new knowledge and skills for doing more in this direction." Stella Velcheva |
"This is a wonderful idea! I will mention about how he inspired the rest of us who are not in the UK...I think they should know that his work is not just UK located." Patricia, Spain |
"I attended a course given by Kolbjorn Borseth in May this year to learn how to make cosmetics, using nature- and people-friendly raw materials. My level of enjoyment of my first class and the enthusiasm that pours out of Kolbjorn's every pore led me to take a further six courses. Not only can I make cosmetics but am in the process of starting my own business doing just this. Kolbjorn has inspired me to change my career - owning my own small business as well as training to become an aromatherapist. Kolbjorn's excellent recipes have helped my family members with eczema so I, like Kolbjorn, believe EVERY inch in what I produce and sell. I have witnessed others in his classes go from dabbling in MYO cosmetics part-time' to 'owning their own cosmetic empires'. A gifted, humble and truly inspirational leader of all those who, at first, dabble their toes in the water but are soon swimming new channels to reach the shores of their ambitions." I do hope that this helps Kolbjorn to win this award. He is such a special person and deserves it... and more. Kindest regards and thanks again." Lynne |
"I have put in my vote for Kolbjorn as I feel he deserves this award more than anyone I have known. If it wasn't for him, I would not have gone far with my own company making beauty products. He definitely inspired me. This is what I have said of him: Kolbjorn is unselfish, down to earth and dedicated to empowering other people. Through his company Aromantic, Kolbjorn has helped thousands other people to build their own Complementary and Natural Therapy businesses. I was one of those people Kolbjorn has helped through his knowledge of the Industry. I think that there would be no other deserving individual to win this award other than Kolbjorn for his outstanding contributions to the Complementary and Natural Therapy Business." Wismah A. Hearnshaw, Zorai Ltd, UK |

"Hello Louise, I absolutely loved Kolbjorn's new book on vegetable oils. Concise and with a great deal of information I know its going to a reference book that I shall be keeping close to hand. The different recipes are very easy to make, and I love the thought of using such natural ingredients. I shall be using the information to benefit my clients and to be able to give them blends to take home and use is excellent. It was so interesting to read about long and short oils, information that can make such a difference to a masssage treatment and facials. I think Kolbjorn's enthusiasm shines through the book, and having met him at a couple of therapy shows I know how helpful and knowledgeable he is. If you can use any of this, please feel free. It really is a brilliant book." Gillian Greening |
"I am so glad I ordered the latest book. I have all of Kolbjorn's books and have found them invaluable. This new book is, once again, clear and easy to read. It gives all the information you would need to immediately adapt your recipes for your clients. I can't wait to start making some of the recipes and to attend the new course. Thank you once again Kolbjorn and all your team. You are an inspiration. Regards to you all." Elspeth |

"I always enjoyed Kolbjorn running the courses - he was always so generous with his time and knowledge, so wasn't so sure about Mike taking over from him but I needn't have worried as Mike is a delightful teacher, always thinking about students and what their special interests are. He makes the day sail by with his bouncy personality and his obvious in-depth knowledge about natural health in general and passion for what he is doing makes it a joy to have him as a teacher." Roslyn, Forres |
"I attended courses at Aromantic, Fulham, London on 15/16/17 April 2011. I would like to say a BIG Thank You for all the help I received from Aromantic. It started with coming across your website while surfing the internet, to being amazed by the things you teach, which made me want to do those courses as soon as I could. I must admit that right from my 1st email to inquire details on the know-abouts, to getting there, you guys have been extremely reciprocative & supportive. I'm very thankful to Mr. Mike Harmon for his very informative sessions, Mr. Ben Borseth for making it easier for us, your entire team at Aromantic for my paperwork/formalities, and of course, Mr. Kolbjorn Borseth for replying to my very 1st email which was full of queries! My experience during the course was AWESOME! I can't wait to start my own line of skin & hair products! I highly appreciate your approach!" Dr. Roma Thadani, India |

"Without Kolbjorn I'd never have had the courage to try all the blending, making and producing of natural products I now do successfully!" Heidi |
"Thank you so much
for the two days. I wasn't feeling confident about trying to
make a really high quality, natural product and getting involved
in the beauty / bodycare business, but now I know I have a source
for materials and for learning and I really want to go for it
and offer people in Ireland and beyond something better and more
natural.
You are an excellent teacher and my only regret
was that I wasn't staying for Sunday as well." |
"Just had to let you
know how much I thoroughly enjoyed your courses recently. Ive
already tried out "my" products of
which I am very proud! The days were "full on" but very exciting and your company mission statement has certainly worked because I now cannot bring myself to purchase a shop made product and I'm telling everyone about the sins of using petrochemicals" June Woods |
"I am writing a brief
note to thank you - and Mike - for last Friday's session in London.
It was a most enjoyable combination of playgroup, socialising
and learning. For a day of learning to be so enjoyable requires
a lot of planning and energy, so many thanks." Lois Langley |
"Kolbjorn's excellent recipes have helped my family members with eczema so I, like Kolbjorn, believe EVERY inch in what I produce and sell. I have witnessed others in his classes go from dabbling in MYO cosmetics part-time' to 'owning their own cosmetic empires'. Kindest regards and thanks again." Lynne |
"I am just writing
to say a very big thank you for the Beginner's Course I attended
last Friday in London. The day was fabulous and extremely inspiring with lots of information to take away - and nice products too!!!" Geraldine |
"I had a very enjoyable
time during my three days course. Your teachings are profound
and explicit, which was very helpful. Hopefully, I will learn from you again in the near future." Tammy Wong |
"Hello Kolbjorn...
You are a crazy but lovable character and I look forward to meeting
with you again sometime soon. I look forward to receiving my
Diplomas/certificates for the Teaching Course, Theory Day, Beginners
and Intermediate Courses" June Woods |
"First I wanted to
take time to thank you on giving me the insider knowledge on how
to make creams I have attended the beginners,intermediate and theory
courses and I have found them really informative and knowledgeable
an additional bonus was the handy hints, anecdotes and tips on good
skin care and knowledge on skin allergies that Kolbjorn has collated
through his years of experience." Stuart Clarkson |
"Hi Kolbjorn! Just
a quick line to say how great the natural perfume course with George
was. We all really enjoyed the day, learnt loads and were delighted
with the perfumes we created. Quite a few of us also expressed an
interest in doing a longer or residential course, spending a few
days more on the theory+ raw ingredients/ history etc. I felt that
we only just scratched the surface of George's formidable knowledge,
and was very sorry to be going home at the end of the day, as myself
and the rest of the group would have loved to have talked for hours,
maybe over glass of wine and dinner!, on this fascinating subject." Alison Smith |
"I am still in Trinidad
and am starting my own handmade soaping company using only essential
oils and botanicals which I import. So far it is going great and
thanks to your course I got on the right track which inspired me
to teach myself this art and now I have to say I am very good at
it... Thanks for changing my life Kolbjorn and I will let you know
how things progress." Trudy Cox |
"I had to write and thank you for a such a super few days
- being a sports physio I have attended hundreds of courses and
have come away so upset sometimes when the lecturers have been
awful - not just me but others on the courses too! But your attitude
was lovely and you were so kind and patient it has restored my
faith in courses and I so look forward to coming to more!!!" |
"Thank you for delivering
such a brilliant 3 day course on product blending, at Forres. It
was a fascinating experience, so much so, I have forwarded all your
course details to my class colleagues at ITHMA Regent College, Regent
Park London. I guess your name will be BUZZING at Moray College
tomorrow, when we show the products we have made to the other students." Dianne Thomas, Aberdeen |
"I just wanted to drop
you a line and thank you for last Friday's course at Whitwood College
in Yorkshire, I had a fantastic time learning something new about
a subject that I have been interested in for a while. It still amazes
me how many people will apply toxins to their bodies in the name
of beauty/vanity, so thanks for taking the time to share with the
world your wealth of knowledge. Hopefully through your work, you
will help to create a paradigm shift in people's attitudes towards
a healthier, less polluted planet. I look forward to meeting you
again, in the meantime keep up the good work." John Whitworth |
"I attended some of
your courses in may and really enjoyed myself and learned such a
lot - which i have been busy practicing." Wilma Patrizio |
"I have attended other
courses on soap making in the past but none have been as rewarding
as Aromantic's. I was really impressed by the way the class is taught,
in such a short space of time it really sets you up for being able
to start making your products straight away. Since doing the courses
the support network from the company is really appreciated. Much
appreciated - keep up the good work!" Stuart Clarkson |
"Have not bought 'shop'
shampoo since going on your course (or conditioner)." Elsie Chadwick |
