Activity itinerary

Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market)

  • 40m
Begin at Pak Khlong Talad — Bangkok’s iconic Flower Market, where the essence of Thai perfumery is born. Wander through vibrant aisles overflowing with jasmine, ylang-ylang, marigold, lotus, rose, and rare tropical blooms. As you breathe in the layers of fresh petals, herbs, and blossoms, you’ll learn to recognise the floral families that inspire traditional Thai scents—from delicate white florals to lush tropical bouquets. Here, surrounded by colours and fragrances at their most alive, you’ll explore how flowers shape Thai aromatic culture. Feel their textures, compare their natural notes, and begin to understand the foundations of perfume creation through the language of blooms.

Royal India Phahurat

  • 40m
Walk into Little India, where the air shifts into a warm tapestry of spice and tradition. Take a short break with fragrant Indian Masala Tea and classic Indian sweets, surrounded by the rich, spicy aroma of herbs and spices that have been carried through generations. As you sip and savour, you’ll learn to recognise the herb and spice families of scent—cinnamon, cardamom, clove, nutmeg, pepper, and more—found at the heart of the Oriental fragrance family. This moment offers a sensory immersion into the deeper, warmer world of perfumery, where spices, resins, and aromatic herbs blend into soulful, comforting notes.

Chinatown / Yaowarat

  • 40m
Follow the gentle trail of incense and faith to Wat Mangkon, the heart of Bangkok’s Chinatown. Here, swirling incense smoke, cascading floral offerings, and the soft glow of lanterns reflect centuries of Chinese devotion. As you explore the temple, you’ll learn about the Chinese Oriental scent family—particularly the warm, meditative aroma of sandalwood, a fragrance deeply rooted in Chinese spiritual rituals. This moment invites you to observe how scent, ceremony, and cultural memory intertwine, creating an atmosphere of calm reverence and timeless tradition.

Bangkok

  • 1h
Savour the cool, floral delicacy of Khao Chae, a royal Thai dish infused with the subtle fragrance of jasmine-scented water. This exquisite dish is a culinary masterpiece where scent and taste harmoniously unite, offering a rare glimpse into Thailand’s royal culinary heritage. During lunch, learn how Thai culture traditionally combines aromas with cuisine to enhance the dining experience—a practice rarely seen today outside royal or ceremonial kitchens. Enjoy this unique opportunity to taste history, fragrance, and flavour all in one bite.

Song Wat Road

  • 40m
Wander through Song Wat Road, Bangkok’s historic spice district, where the aromas of the past linger in every corner. Explore narrow streets lined with Chinese herbal medicine shops, fragrant spice stalls, and modern multistorey perfume boutiques. This is a place where tradition meets contemporary craftsmanship—giving you a sensory journey through generations of herbs, spices, and perfumery culture, all within the vibrant heart of the city.

Bangkok

  • 1h 30m
Conclude your day at the Thai Perfume Workshop, where tradition and creativity intertwine. Discover the ancient art of Nam Prung, traditional Thai perfumery, and craft your very own signature fragrance inspired by the scents you’ve experienced throughout the day. Take home a 10 ml bottle of the Thai perfume you created, a personal keepsake of your sensory journey. This is more than a city tour—it’s a sensory storytelling experience, where you become the creator of your own aromatic narrative.
