Our sense of smell can provide avenues of delight and personal discovery, storing memories and impressions that arise with the first breath of an aroma. A garden infused with a symphony of aromatic floral notes can evoke deep consciousness, spiritual awareness, and a profound connection with nature.The first scented gardens were planted more than 2500 years ago within the enclosed courtyards of Persian palaces.

Persians were taught from an early age that it was the duty of each individual to conserve and honor nature as part of the divine creation, and these sacred gardens were looked upon as a means of recreating and experiencing heaven on the earth.
