"So here we are in Perfumes and Pot Pourri, Slushie!" exclaimed Gojo. "Let's dive right in!" Slushie and Gojo very much enjoyed their immersion in the Benefits of Pot Pourri. They learnt pot pourri has several benefits when used at home, the main one being aro­matic: provid­ing a pleas­ant and natural frag­rance to your home, help­ing to mask odours and creat­ing a wel­coming atmosphere.

"You just have to experience this immersion, Gojo!" remarked Patch. "It's amazing! This company produces half the perfume produced in France!" Gojo reached for a headset. "Do they employ a lot of 'noses'?" he asked, in a jocular fashion. "Many 'noses' are trained there, learning to distinguish between over 2000 different scents! Oh, and it's nez, not 'nose'," responded Patch.

"This is a bit of a different one, Finn!" remarked Gojo. "Hmm. Yes, a collage of hearts in calm­ing pastel shades, offer­ing a romantic yet modern and stylish composition," responded Finn. "They're sooth­ing colours, and if it makes you feel good to look at it, that's the main thing."
While getting pampered, you met Finn.

"I'm finding that the scent of pot pourri provides a calm­ing and sooth­ing environ­ment, which can help to relax you," remarked Gojo. "I agree," said Choose a name. "What's more, you can vary it with the time of year. As the immersion suggest­ed, use elements of dried orange, cloves and cinna­mon at Christmas­time."

"That sounds like a nice collection of mementoes, Gojo!"
While getting pampered, you met jejustar.
Gojo shook paws with jejustar the Blue Beautiful Unicorn. They both received one silver mole!

"Hey, Gojo! You must try this immersion; it's fabulous. It's about the resurg­ence of home­made, natural pot pourri and the nostalgic country­side aesthetic move­ment that's been grow­ing over recent years.

"I'm going to search the gift shop for the one they sprayed at the end, the Rose Oud Attar," said Gojo. "My Mum will love it. I made a note: top notes of cardamom, dried fruit and geran­ium; middle notes of rose, saff­ron and frankin­cense, base notes of oud, ambergris and opoponax."
While getting pampered, you met sammy.
Gojo shook paws with sammy the Grey Playful Kitten. They both received one silver mole!
"This one's really interesting, Pea," remarked Gojo. "It says pot pourri was first docu­mented in the mid-18th century but has a far longer history. Early pot pourri was made with scent­ed flowers, herbs and spices. Roses were often the star of the show with their sooth­ing and calm­ing scent." "I was just learning over there that many shop-bought roses have been geneti­cally modi­fied to have their scent gene removed and are often sprayed with pesti­cides. So, as always, home-grown and home-made is best!" responded Pea.
While getting pampered, you met Pea.
Gojo shook paws with Pea the Meadow's Secret Caterpillar. They both received one silver mole!
“Did you see those 2024 calendars in the giftshop?” asked Gojo. "Each month features one of the exhibits we've seen on our tour!

Serena and Gojo were captivated by the next immersion, to explore the spice and flower markets of Morocco in North Africa. 'Is there any name more romantic than Marrakech?' ran the narrative. 'Located 200 miles north-west of Morocco's coastal capital, Rabat, on a journey that takes you via Casa­blanca, then further inland, Marrakech is famous for its spice markets. Picture the caravans of camels of a thousand years ago, trekk­ing from the Sahara Desert bearing merch­ants eager to sell gold and salt. Now a top tourist attract­ion, many visitors enjoy explori­ng the centuries-old wind­ing alley­ways, watch­ing street enter­tainment and haggling with vendors for an array of hand-made goods, ranging from Berber carpets to spices and rose petals.' Gojo and Serena emerged blinking and awestruck when the VR ended!
While getting pampered, you met Serena.
Gojo shook paws with Serena the Blue Beautiful Unicorn. They both received one silver mole!

While getting pampered, you met Daphne Fluffster Tinklehoof.
Gojo shook paws with Daphne Fluffster Tinklehoof the Midnight Mauve Unicorn. They both received one silver mole!

"Did you see that recipe for Persian stuffed dumpling squash with rose petals?" queried Gojo. "Yes, indeed!" responded Shadow. "It said Middle Eastern cuisine uses rose­water and rose petals in a variety of dishes, and rose petals and rose hips are popular with home cooks and profession­al chefs alike. Whilst the nutrition­al bene­fits of rose petals are negligible, beyond some Vitamin C, they do add bene­fits beyond their nutritive value." "Do you remember in Turkey a couple of years ago we found that lokum was made with rose­water?" reminisced Gojo." "Ah, you mean Turkish Delight! And most delicious it was, too!" responded Shadow.
Gojo has enjoyed sniffing fine scents, but it is time to go home. Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also enjoy this event!
While getting pampered, you met Shadow.
Gojo shook paws with Shadow the Black Lovable Labrador. They both received one silver mole!
