On Sunday, August 17, 2025, I had the joy of joining The Beauty Boost Houston for their Recharge Day Retreat—a beautiful gathering designed to slow us down, breathe deeper, and reconnect with ourselves. From the moment the doors opened, there was an undeniable calm in the air: warm smiles, cozy conversations, and an energy that felt both grounding and uplifting.
Serenique Scents was honored to create a sanctuary within the sanctuary. Our Serenity Station mobile cart made its Houston retreat debut alongside the Pause & Pen reflection wall—inviting guests to linger, jot down an intention, and choose a scent that matched the moment they wanted to carry home.
What We Brought to the Experience
The Serenity Station: A curated aromatherapy encounter where guests explored our signature scent families—fresh, floral, woody, and cozy—and discovered their personal “reset” fragrance.
Pause & Pen Reflection Wall: A gentle journaling prompt designed to help guests name what they’re releasing and what they’re welcoming in. It was powerful to watch people take a quiet minute just for themselves.
Mini Scent Demos & Take-Home Favorites: Attendees tested our most-loved products and asked great questions about where and how to use scent to shift a space—or a mood.
Community Highlights
The heart of the day was the community. So many of you stopped by to breathe in, smile, and share what relaxation looks like in your world. I’m deeply grateful for every conversation and the genuine support for a small, handcrafted brand rooted in wellness and intention.
A few lovely wins from the day:
- Eterna—our serene, elevated crowd-pleaser—sold out (thank you!).
- Room & Linen Sprays flew off the cart and confirmed what I hear often: a few spritzes can transform a room into a refuge.
- Many of you discovered new favorites and shared how you plan to weave micro-moments of calm into work, bedtime routines, and busy mornings.
Event Best Sellers
- Aromatic Room & Linen Sprays in Eterna, Rebirth, and Moonlight Tranquility
- Serenity Aura Deluxe Aromatic Reed Diffuser (a beautiful option for effortless, all-day ambiance)
- Luxe Body Oils, perfect for post-shower rituals and a soft, lasting glow
- If you missed out on Eterna at the retreat—don’t worry! We’re restocking. In the meantime, Rebirth and Moonlight Tranquility are wonderful companions for daily reset rituals.

Bring the Retreat Home
If you’re ready to keep the calm going, here are a few easy ways to “recharge” at home or the office:
- Create a scent cue: Choose a signature scent (like Eterna or Rebirth) and spritz your Room & Linen Spray when you sit down to work, start your evening wind-down, or before journaling.
- Build a two-minute ritual: Apply a Luxe Body Oil after your shower and take two mindful breaths while massaging your hands—simple, grounding, and luxe.
- Set an intention you can see: Keep one sentence on your desk or mirror (we love “Today I choose ease”) and pair it with a diffuser to anchor the feeling in your space.
