You step off the mall corridor into a small studio that smells faintly of coconut and citrus — the ocean is a short walk away, its breeze teasing the outlet doors and promising a sunset after your class. Inside Lucid Coast at Tanger Outlets, tables are set with jars, wicks and a neat row of fragrance bottles; an instructor walks the room with measured calm, encouraging choices and steady hands.
