The Workshop

Welcome to Senteurs d'Angkor Workshop

Free visit

Through the different stations of our Workshop, you will discover how our artisans make by hand : soap with coconut oil, natural cosmetics, subtly scented balms, aromatic candles, but also their packaging that we call “Smok” and “Krebei riel” boxes.

Smok box and krebei riel box are both natural but made of different parts of the palm tree. Our artisans learnt to make these boxes in their villages where the skills are transmitted from one generation to another.

You will also observe the different steps to treat and prepare the local spices (Kampot pepper, lemongrass, chili…), and how we blend them to make the traditional curry or amok.

During your visit, you will be able to taste several of our creations : flavored coffee, flavored tea, exotic jams… and identify various exotic plants and flowers as : lemongrass, chili, pepper plant, coffee tree, frangipani, jasmine…

Incense

For millennia, on all continents, men had discovered that the smoke of certain woods and plants could bring serenity, inner calm, which is the foundation of well-being. Nowadays, you’ll still find incense in every single pagoda in Cambodia. In our workshop, Incense cones are made of kapok tree sawdust and leaves paste, mixed with water and perfume. 

Spices

Beyond rice, Cambodian cuisine uses many spices and herbs in various dishes such as “Lok Lak” (beef and pepper sauce) , “Saït Chrouk kwaï” (lacquered pork), “Ban Chaw” (pancake stuffed with herbs, pork and soy) , the amok or the “Samlor Kari” which is a very popular red curry soup.

Soap

Our natural soaps, based on coconut oil, which is in abundance here, are handmade. Soaps in different shape are available in … different scents. They are also colored with natural ingredients such as charcoal, chia seeds, lotus stamen, curcuma, red clay and lemongrass powder.

Krebei riel

Those boxes are made from sugar palm tree branches. Our artisans come from Krebei Riel village, the only village that detains and masters this know-how, where Senteurs d’Angkor also provide sustainable work to 30 other women.

Natural cosmetic

Concerning our own cosmetics range, we use the best natural ingredients such as coconut oil, jojoba oil and sweet almond oil blended with essential oils and beeswax. We make all types of creams (face, body, hand and foot), balms, scrubs and massage oils, perfumed with the scents of Cambodia. We only use natural preservative such as Vitamin E.

Smok

The sugar palm tree is one of Cambodia’s national icons; it plays a very important role in providing material for many home uses as the leaves are used as thatch for roof and walls, mats, baskets … At Senteurs d’Angkor, we use theses leaves to create boxes as a packaging for our products. Our artisans come from Kravann village where we provide sustainable work to 80 other women.
