Program & Itinerary
Surrender your senses to the heart of Provence during this immersive private workshop.

Guided by a passionate local farmer, experience the traditional art of essential oil distillation and watch your fragrant essence emerge.
Discover Provençal gastronomy with a relaxed apéritif and a fresh poke bowl lunch paired with organic local wine. As the afternoon sun warms the mas, a boutique perfumery session awaits, led by an expert who helps you blend a signature natural fragrance to match your unique style.
