A journey into aroma therapy oils

It was as a wonderful experience even though I booked as a solo participant my husband was with me and was made feel so welcome, we both did with lovely Turkish tea and interesting stories and it was great to witness the process of making lavender aroma therapy. A peaceful garden and a great experience I highly recommend it if you are looking for something different

Best workshop in Istanbul ✨️

We had such a wonderful time at the workshop!! The atmosphere was amazing and inspiring. It was a very special place and truly local (not commercialized / touristic like other Workshops we went to). If you want an authentic experience absolute must do! Buğra and his lovely mother are amazing hosts. It was a fun workshop and we learned many things about destilation and Istanbul. The lavendar water and rose water smell amazing. We also got lavendar oil ✨️ We got so many gifts, tea, fresh coffe...daha fazla oku

Thank you very much.

As we sat in the courtyard with the call to prayer, the chickens out on the grass and the sweet smell of the distilling essential...daha fazla oku
