Aromatic Tour of the Amazon
16th Edition - Fragrance of the Soul.
Participation of Palmira Margarida
From March 14 to 20, 2026.
In the 16th edition of the Aromatic Tour in March 2026, the Amazon is unveiled as a vast living bottle of perfumes, where each plant reveals notes that awaken our most creative, loving, and spiritual essence.
To be among its aromas is to experience a reunion with one's own soul—a silent prayer in dialogue with nature, which presents itself not as a resource, but as teacher, mother, and sister.
The presence of an Aromatherapy teacher in the Aromatic Tour enriches the experience, fostering a meaningful exchange of practical knowledge between riverside communities and participants.
From March 14 to 20, 2026, this special immersion invites you to feel the forest in its fullness, with Amazonian beaches revealed by low waters, right in the heart of the tucumã harvest—a vibrant and nourishing fruit.
The atmosphere will be shaped by the transition from the Waning Moon to the Waxing Moon, symbolizing purification and renewal—a gentle invitation to open the senses and reconnect with the wisdom of the forest.
Observar a floresta com o olhar das comunidades ribeirinhas é uma experiência inesquecível.
