Dubai shimmered with everything the world desires, luxury, scent, spectacle. But I didn’t go there for what shines. In the souks, in the silence of the dunes, and in one unforgettable gaze, I lost who I thought I was, and uncovered something deeper.

Not the gold on display, but the gold within.

This is the story of oud, fire, and the truth that can’t be bought. Scent Trail – Episode 4: « The Gold Within » (Dubai) is now live.

In Seoul, nothing performed. Not the people. Not the beauty. Not even the scent I created quietly, for no one but myself.

A city of restraint and refinement, Seoul taught me the power of holding back. It was there, in a quiet perfume class, that I rediscovered the elegance of simplicity and brought that philosophy home to Artisane.

This is where the custom scent portion of our candle-making experience was born: from stillness, from discipline, from scent as a sacred whisper.

What does home smell like? For me, it’s the warm wind of Provence carrying whispers of lavender, dry earth, and sun-ripened fig. In this new episode of Scent Trail, I return through memory and fragrance to the place that shaped my soul. Provence is more than a region; it’s a feeling, a scent, a ritual. This story lives inside every Artisane candle-making experience I host.

OUD, known as "liquid gold," is a valuable resin from the agarwood tree, cherished in the Middle East for its rich aroma and cultural significance. Produced through a rare, labor-intensive process, OUD is associated with religious rituals, hospitality, luxury, and medicinal uses. In candle making, it offers a unique, multi-layered scent that appeals to those seeking exotic, luxurious fragrances. Candle making classes teach participants to create OUD-infused candles, blending tradition with modern craftsmanship.
