      Following the fragrance, through the inconspicuous entrance, I arrive at a secluded paradise, hidden in this urban jungle, exclusively for men. With everything from the island of Bali, I am surrounded and relaxed by the scent of essential oils, music, exotic paintings, and breezy translucent drapery. The host carefully describes the services offered here and lets me choose a preferred scent amongst floral, fruity, and woody essential oils. Temperature and brightness have been adjusted to my liking for a customized massage room atmosphere. After a shower and a tea tree oil steam bath, a masseur, trained in muscle relaxation and aromatherapy, massages my body according to my breathing. It is not long before I am completely loosened and relaxed. Stepping out of the massage room, the host has thoughtfully dimmed the lights at the reception area, a wonderful finish to this perfect presentation. ¡V By Ken Lin, translated by Yvonne Chen (³¯¨|ªÚ)
