Wearing scented sachets is a cherished tradition during the Dragon Boat Festival in China. As the festival approaches, artisans in Licheng County, Shanxi Province, are busy producing a wide variety of sachets to meet rising demand. They cut embroidered fabric patterns, stitch the sachet shells, and fill them with cotton and aromatic herbs. These herb-filled sachets are not only pleasantly fragrant but also believed to repel insects and ward off illness.
