About

Christina
Eller-Fakhry

Psychotherapist, somatic practitioner, yoga teacher, and founder of ReFyne Therapy.

Christina Eller-Fakhry is a psychotherapist by training, somatic practitioner, yoga teacher, and founder of ReFyne Therapy. ReFyne Studios is where that background turns outward — toward scent, perception, embodiment, and the quiet architecture of attention.

Her work grew from years of observing how memory, emotion, expectation, attention, and bodily state shape the way people experience themselves and the world around them — often before a single word is chosen.

In fragrance, that lens moves beyond simply identifying notes or deciding whether something smells “good.” Christina is interested in how scent is actually experienced: through the interaction of composition, memory, context, expectation, bodily response, identity, and desire.

Through immersive fragrance experiences, private salons, and brand collaborations, she invites people to slow down and become more curious about what they notice, what they feel, and what becomes personally meaningful as a fragrance unfolds.

Recent work includes designing and leading an immersive New York fragrance experience in collaboration with a celebrated contemporary perfume house, while continuing to develop ReFyne Studios at the intersection of olfaction, perception, embodiment, and sensory storytelling.

The Offerings

ReFyne Studios

Bespoke sensory work at the intersection of olfaction, perception, and presence — for individuals, brands, and intimate gatherings.

01

Immersive Experiences

Guided multi-sensory encounters designed around a fragrance, theme, or object of attention. Rooms become compositions; guests become participants in the act of perception.

02

Private Salons

One-on-one and small-group sessions for collectors, hosts, and the scent-curious. A slower, more intimate conversation with fragrance, memory, and personal meaning.

03

Brand Collaborations

Creative direction and sensory programming for fragrance houses, launches, editorial events, and spaces that want to turn product into atmosphere.

The Record

The House

ReFyne Studios is a sensory practice built around perception — how scent, breath, and attention shape what we notice and what we remember.

The Focus

Olfactory perception, memory and association, embodiment and breath, context and desire, attention as a practice.

The Background

Trained as a psychotherapist, with years of somatic study and yoga teaching. That training informs the sensory work — its precision, its pacing, and its attention to the body.

Collaborations

Private and small-group sensory encounters, brand and fragrance house experiences, salons, launches, and immersive evenings. Begin with a conversation.

The Practice

Two ways in.

Each chapter opens a different door into the same question: how do we experience what we experience — and what becomes possible when we notice it more closely?

Olfactory & Sensory Experiences

An invitation to meet fragrance before the mind names it — where perception, memory, and desire unfold in real time.

Scent is the fastest route to memory and the most private language of atmosphere. Each experience is designed to slow the moment between inhaling and interpreting, revealing how context, story, and sensation collaborate to create what we call taste.

From intimate private salons to immersive brand evenings, the work is a choreography of attention: glass, skin, air, and the subtle architecture of a room.

For fragrance houses, individuals, and collectors seeking a deeper, more thoughtful encounter with olfactory art.

The Scent Edit

Which scent makes you feel best?

Three instinctive questions to reveal the fragrance that meets you where you are — and deepens the way you want to feel.

Question 1 of 3

When you want to feel your best, what kind of atmosphere do you seek?
