Acceptance & Sensuality — Comforting Botanical Bath Soak

It isn’t always easy to fully inhabit our own body.
For some, sensuality becomes a quiet place of reserve —
a space of modesty, distance, or uncertainty.

The gaze of others, past experiences,
or a subtle discomfort can create separation —
as if we lived a few centimeters away
from our own skin.

And yet, sensuality does not have to be bold.
At its heart, it is simply
the art of being alive:
breathing, feeling,
letting oneself be at home within.

This ritual was created as a gentle meeting —
not to seduce,
but to help us return to the body
slowly, without judgment.

The Experience

I imagined this bath as a delicate invitation
to approach oneself with kindness.

Its aromatic signature is built on a synergy of essential oils*
with floral, spicy, and woody nuances:

• Ylang-Ylang (Cananga odorata)
• Jasmine Grandiflorum (Jasminum grandiflorum)
• Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum)
• Amyris (Amyris balsamifera)
• Geranium Bourbon (Pelargonium graveolens)

Their fragrance weaves a warm, rounded atmosphere —
a place where skin and senses
gently come back together.

Dead Sea salts melt into warm water,
embracing the skin with a soft, mineral touch.

*For external use only — not a treatment.

How to Use

Add about three tablespoons (≈ 30 g) to a warm bath.
Let the water welcome the fragrance,
close your eyes,
and offer this moment all the time it needs.

What This Ritual Invites

• A more intimate presence with oneself
• A comforting floral-woody atmosphere
• A gentler relationship with the body
• Skin softened by mineral salts

This ritual encourages nothing extravagant.
It simply accompanies a slow, honest return
to the embodied experience —
without expectation, without artifice.

A Note from Christian

Each Hanami botanical bath soak is made by hand,
with slow, intentional care.

Its scent is natural — sometimes surprising —
expressing the quiet presence of plants
simply as they are,
without disguise.
