Smell: A fragrant pause

Two Paisleys Smell: A small pause sensory card

A few of our favourite things, shared with you.

Perhaps a fragrant ritual found you. Perhaps only the card did. Either way, this is permission to make the next few minutes feel a little slower.

What found you?

Mini incense

A small fragrant pause from India, chosen for the way scent can change the atmosphere of a room in moments.

Bath crystals

A small invitation to turn an ordinary bath into a slower evening ritual. Follow the directions and ingredient information on the sealed sachet.

Only the card?

Then the ritual below is your insert. It needs no special product - only five undisturbed minutes.

A five-minute room reset

  1. Open a window for a minute and let the room change.
  2. Clear one small surface - not the whole room.
  3. If you have incense and it is safe to use, light one stick in a stable heatproof holder.
  4. Sit down with a drink and leave your phone out of reach.
  5. Before you move on, extinguish the incense completely and notice what feels different.

No incense? Use a favourite soap, tea or hand cream as the scent cue. The pause is the point.


Before you begin

Incense: use one stick at a time in a stable heatproof holder on a non-flammable surface and in a well-ventilated room. Never leave it burning unattended. Keep away from fabrics, draughts, children and pets. Extinguish fully before leaving the room or sleeping.

Bath crystals: use only if the sachet is sealed and its directions are legible. Follow all ingredient and warning information. For external use only; avoid eyes and broken skin, and stop if irritation occurs. Keep away from children.

The incense and bath crystals are shared in their original sealed packaging, but these may not include a full ingredients or allergen list. If you have allergies or dietary requirements, please do not use them.
