STEP INSIDE
THE SCENTED CIRCLE.
Our upcoming retreats invite you to explore fragrance, presence, and curiosity in equal measure
Each gathering allows you to immerse yourself in the art and experience of scent, offering a balance of movement, stillness and sensory discovery, Whether you come to deepen your knowledge, or simply to breathe, these retreats are a space to reconnect – with fragrance, with yourself, and with others who share your curiosity.
