About this session

Scent has long been intertwined with daily life, hospitality, ritual, and memory across Southeast Asia, and this hands-on session lets you work directly with heritage spices and botanicals — cinnamon, star anise, cloves — to create your own scented wax tablet. Through the selection and composition of familiar aromatic materials, you're invited to reflect on the relationship between scent, place, and personal experience as you build. The finished tablet serves as both a functional object and a small piece of contemporary craft rooted in tradition. No prior crafting experience is required. A lovely, sensory-rich fit for beginners and anyone drawn to scent as memory.
