The Art of Bathing - The Full Experience

The Art of Bathing Full Experience is a complete journey through the GRESSA bath house ritual, bringing together five essential preparations crafted to cleanse, enliven, and restore both skin and spirit. Rooted in Hammam tradition and enriched with botanical science, it is a practice of renewal meant to be savored weekly.

• 
  Hammam Conditioning Soap Paste: A hand-cooked olive soap enriched with lavender, neroli, geranium, frankincense, and ylang ylang. Velvety in texture, it softens and purifies, preparing the body for exfoliation.
  
• 
  Kessa Glove: The essential tool of Hammam, woven for respectful yet effective exfoliation of face and body, unveiling softness and vitality.
  
• 
  Sillage: A whisper-light veil of hydration — neither a mist nor a cream — infused with neroli hydrosol, citrus notes, niacinamide, and MSM.
  
• 
  Attar: The final act of devotion, a golden anointing oil of sandalwood, rose, jasmine, myrrh, helichrysum, and gold that seals in nourishment and radiance.
