| The Perfume You Can Smell Only When It's In Season [feat. April Gargiulo of Vintner's Daughter] | 27 Aug 2024 | 01:04:26 | |
Imagine only being able to make a perfume when the raw materials are in peak season. That's how April Gargiulo developed Understory, the singular perfume oil from her brand Vintner's Daughter. A year after its original launch, it's back again—round 2—with some slightly evolved aromatic tweaks. This is how a winemaker creates a perfume oil.

| Not A Podcast (feat. Romano Ricci of Juliette Has A Gun) | 07 May 2024 | 00:54:42 | |
Juliette Has A Gun's founder Romano Ricci may be more of a Mercutio in the Shakespeare-coded and metaphorical world of this episode. With Not A Perfume, Anyway..., Mmmm..., Ode To Dullness, and others, Juliette Has A Gun has undone haute parfumerie's formalities and proven that levity can be luxury as well. We speak with Ricci about the risk of launching an unserious fragrance brand in the height of mid-aughts fragrance culture, his roots in fragrance and fashion legacy, and how fragrance can be invisible armor.

| Auld Lang Smells: The 2022 Of It All | 04 Jan 2022 | 01:32:50 | |
It's a brand new year, which doesn't actually mean... a thing. BUT we do have our first episode of 2022 kicking off with our made-up scent resolutions AKA the "ins" and "outs" of smells and scents, plus, as it turns out, lots of things that have nothing to do with either.

While we're all dealing with the Omicron of it all, your intrepid hosts insist upon looking ahead — to the future of scent and what it holds. We may not be meteorologists or have a degree in marketing or communications, but when it comes to trend forecasting, we know when to bring an umbrella. Here's an hour and change featuring our crystal balling into what we can all expect to smell in the new and near year.

End of year lists are here and we are no better than all the other self-appointed clout contenders out there in the mediasphere, so in the spirit of the end of 2021, your hosts are reviewing the past year in smells and giving you strictly anecdotal ranked and unranked recollections from memory: their top, most, and best smells and smell-makers of the year.

Pals in pod, Emilio Quezada & Evan Shinn, AKA Dewy Dudes join us for our first roundtable on the eau dude scent, king behavior, and the collective trauma of Axe body spray. What are the dudes spraying these days? What's the difference between a hot-boi and a fuck-boi? What's a pick-me scent? What do they call Axe in England?

| Jackie Aina Is A FORVR Mood | 23 Nov 2021 | 01:27:43 | |
Whoever said never meet your idols never told Tynan, who has manifested such a meeting with none other than mega influencer and scented candle queen, Jackie Aina. Excuse the jittery energy, as we get into it with our girl, who's had a prolific career, from dropping out of college, joining the army, dominating YouTube, interviewing the president of the United States (!!!) and of course, launching cheeky candle brand, FORVR MOOD.

| So You Want to Be a Perfumer... | 09 Nov 2021 | 01:16:13 | |
What's it like to be a perfumer? Is it like going to Hogwarts School of Whiffcraft & Whiffery? In some ways, yes. And in some ways...not no. Luckily, we have perfumer Marissa Zappas on to tell us about her journey into the olfactory arts, what it's like going from the corporate world of fragrance to carving her own independent path in scent sorcery, and why it's better to study for a smell test when you're ovulating. Find out more about Marissa Zappas at her website and on Instagram at @marissazappas.

| One Planet's Air Is Another Person's Perfume | 02 Nov 2021 | 01:03:11 | |
Carbon emissions = bad. Perfume = good. This is the basic math behind Air Company's second product ever: AIR EAU DE PARFUM, a fragrance made from CO2 emissions. How do you make perfume from [gestures all around] the air?? We have Greg Constantine, co-founder of Air Company on the pod to tell us about his humble operation that literally turns carbon emissions into useful things like vodka, perfume, and jet fuel — all essential items for our planet's uncertain future.

| DEATH (To All Of Them) [The Remix] | 19 Oct 2021 | 01:02:33 | |
It's spooky season once again and we're bubbling up this very seasonal episode on THE SMELL OF DEATH from a year ago with neuroscientist and cadaver scholar, Mo Costandi. It's not just a copy/paste — that's not our style, no, what the hell. We, of course, include an all-new, updated, present-day, overwrought overture, as is our style indeed. Also, we have so many new smells to tell you about! So, even if you are familiar with the smell of death (our episode, not the actual smell), there are reasons to give it another listen.

| The Tortured Perfume Department | 30 Apr 2024 | 00:49:24 | |
Spring is canonically a season of bare knees, vitamin D-derived dopamine, crushes, and for many, the expiration of their winter and fall cuffs. An uncuffing season, if you will. In this yap-centric episode, we cover some of our foolproof 'get back out there' scents, and a whole lot of other scent-adjacent behaviors that put the sprung in spring.

| We've Had Enough Of This Scent-less Violence | 12 Oct 2021 | 01:08:42 | |
Added fragrance in beauty products gets a bad rep these days. But given the likelihood that most products "don't work" anyway, may we at least reap some sensorial joy out of greasing up our slowly deteriorating mortal vessels with our little creams and potions, please? If you can slather it, we've smelled it, and this episode contains our favorite non-fragrance fragranced products. What else:

| Reinventing The Wheel With Cloud | 28 Sep 2021 | 01:04:48 | |
You asked, and we deliver. Not that wouldn't have thought to do so of our own accord, but it just so happens all our interests and obsessions align with the release of Ariana Grande Cloud 2.0 Intense — the more dramatic newborn sibling to our beloved Cloud. In this episode, we review the new fragrance (obviously), we break down the nuanced differences between the Intense and the original, we disagree about the word "boyfriend," and also Dolly Parton's fragrance (sorry), we reinvent the fragrance wheel by inserting "cloud" as a scent profile category. Yes, we have it on good olfactive authority that Cloud is a unique and recognizable enough accord that its name deserves respect and promotion. Also because everyone seems to be clocking Cloud as a dupe for this or a "this is the only perfume people compliment on me" that. It's time. We graciously took it upon ourselves to name several contenders that illustrate exactly what we mean.

| The Perfume Most Likely To Be Seen In A Wes Anderson Film | 07 Sep 2021 | 01:16:22 | |
In this episode: Tynan's cloud kingdom is fully assembled and he still insists that Kim Kardashian would come on this podcast. Sable recounts the trauma of draining water bulges in her apartment walls post-hurricane and complains about social media. Both of your hosts promise to stop co-opting the intros of these episodes to spiral about personal struggles and instead wax conspiratorial about toxic influencing. And then we talk to Sweden's newest hot boi of scent, Jan Vilhelm Ahlgren, and how he captures complex fantastical imaginings of parallel universes and figures in scent form for his very luxuriously anachronistic fragrance collection, Vilhelm Parfumerie.

| Smell This Simulation | 31 Aug 2021 | 01:19:43 | |
What happens when virtual reality co-ops scent for immersive experiences in intentionally manipulative ways to help people become more capable, more at peace, and better equipped to navigate real life? As a tech podcast, which we are now, we are investigating how the power of scent is used in virtual reality applications for good and for evil (maybe?). We have CEO Aaron Wisniewski of OVR Technology on to talk about how they're incorporating scent into virtual reality for all sorts of applications, such as but not limited to: healthcare, mental health, therapy, education, military, and civil service training.

Why are the richest and famous-est simply not bathing? And why are they running their mouths about it when they should be running their faucets? Your hosts investigate, disagree (about Jake Jellyhall), sort of agree (about our collective disconnect between the theater of hygiene vs actual cleanliness), and wax chaotic about bathtub time sucks, sedentary lifestyles, and certain words that are not for the straights.

| Fenty Fumes, Gasoline Meatballs, & Toxic Girlfriend Tips | 10 Aug 2021 | 00:59:54 | |
There have been some events happening in the world that can be smelled and then thought about: The Fenty ParFUM: What it smells like. What it's made of. What's the deal with that logo. Also, Rihanna's government name is Robyn?? (It is.) Also, all these scented stunt products from IKEA and Ford. Plus, some very fascinating and confusing scientific discoveries in a bug's nose about how olfactory receptors work -- that while being very exciting, we are not entirely sure what it means? But we're trying. And that's what matters. Sort of.

| Confessions From Behind The Fragrance Counter | 03 Aug 2021 | 01:14:30 | |
We all remember navigating the mall through the huge beauty floors (because you always had to enter the mall through a department store for some reason) where your friendly fragrance sales associates would be demo-ing the latest, pungiest (you know what I mean), designer-iest fragrances. Well, we have always wondered what it's like to have one of the most glamorous jobs at the mall: perfume girl. So we decided to talk to one former fragrance demo (and current illustrator and artist extraordinaire), Lauren Tamaki, who has over 10 years of behind-the-counter experience shilling scents to the world (well the part of the world that visited Canadian department stores). Selling fragrance is not unlike speed dating — you're getting to know someone's desires and aspirations and what makes them cringe or go weak in the knees — all in just one sense. It is also not unlike a well-heeled territorial game of survival of the spritziest, as Ms. Tamaki tells us from her time on the sales floor.

| I Smell Sex And [Redacted] | 20 Jul 2021 | 01:06:08 | |
The smell of love is not quite the same thing as the scent of lust. The latter is more... slutty for lack of a more polite word. But along all the lines of all things amorous and sessual, the scents we associate with attraction, sex, and love are often not quite the odors present in either context. And sometimes they are. So that's what we're talking about in this definitely not PG episode.

Oh, you like gourmands? Name five flavors. Le Monde Gourmand can give you dozens more than that. We have Ann Somma, chief brand officer of Tru Fragrance & Beauty to chat behind the makings of your favorite retailers' fragrances (American Eagle, Anthropologie, Urban Outfitters, Wrangler Jeans...) and how one of those secret fragrances seen only in Urban Outfitters stores struck out to become its very own brand, now jumping to bigger retailers like Ulta, and developing its own following on social media with cute, edible (and French-sounding), and collectible scents.

| Scent Sells: How To Sniff Targeted Ads | 13 Jul 2021 | 01:15:12 | |
So you thought targeted ads would stop at just your eyes and your ears? No, they're coming for your nose as well — in fact, they've been there and you may or may not have even been aware of it. Some such companies like our guests for this episode, Air Aroma, are responsible for curating the olfactive vibes in any kind of space, from hotel lobbies to fancy stores, homes of the rich and famous, car dealerships, cruise ships, airline lounges, and even medical offices. In this episode, we discuss scent marketing and just how effective an odor can be for experiential value, emotional manipulation (in a good way), as well as capitalist agendas.

Another bi-annual round of AMA Q&As submitted by our dear and loyal SYL listeners.

Get to know a bit more about the SYL hosts... six months after they did one of these interrogation episodes previously.

| The Many Layers of Kayali | 22 Jun 2021 | 01:09:27 | |
If you've watched any beauty YouTube (or Instagram) in the past decade you're likely well aware of Huda Beauty. But the brand's co-founder Mona Kattan also has an extremely high-profile (perhaps the highest) side hustle with KAYALI, a very fancy fragrance brand. Perhaps you've heard about it from Tynan absolutely losing it over Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper in previous episodes, or more likely from Mona herself because she is much more influential than we, and also she runs the brand, obviously. Well, lucky for us, Mona has a new scent that's perfect for now (summer) and also forever! Utopia Vanilla Coco 21 (which Sable will undoubtedly refer to as UVC21), is Kayali's seventh fragrance and the antidote to a year+ long lockdown. She talks about bringing the scent to life and how Kayali got its start from her passion for scent and perfume, the immersive culture of fragrance in Dubai, and what it's like running a few of the world's most beloved beauty brands.

| Some Of These Bitches Need The Aluminum | 15 Jun 2021 | 01:10:41 | |
We are discussing Tynan's most loathed topic: deodorant. And in an attempt to talk about anything but this topic, he deftly veers the discussion around to: pimple-popping (videos and IRL), scabies, ballsacks, natural beauty's foibles, the clothes that make B.O. even worse, sunscreen (again), sexual handshakes, and of course the deodorants we actually like because they work. (You have to listen to the episode to learn those, you thought you could cheat just by looking at the episode notes, did you??) If you're wondering whether natural deodorants are better than ones with aluminum, this New York Times article is helpful. And if you want to learn more about Sable's stress sweat saga, she wrote about it on Allure. [What we smell like today: Britney Spears Believe, Persons Of Interest Two Wolves]

| Talking SPF: Summer Perfumes & Fragrances (& Sunscreen) | 08 Jun 2021 | 00:49:26 | |
Everyone knows that when you start smelling that sweetly tropical scent of sunscreen on everyone's skin, summer is officially here. But what is that particular scent that we all seem to just know? We do a not-that-deep dive into our favorite sunscreen brands' telltale fragrances and get into what our favorite classic summer fragrances are for getting into all the kinds of trouble that only this hellishly horny season can enable.

| The Scent Of Toxic Masculinity | 25 May 2021 | 01:05:13 | |
There are certain fragrances that carry connotations of the types of personalities who wear them loud and proud. And for those unfortunate few fragrances who did nothing wrong other than hang around the wrong crowd of certain men about town... they have come to be the aromatic warning waft for the fuccboi™. For reasons unknown to all but the marketing teams behind their mass success, these certain fragrances are implicitly known by anyone with a beating heart as the scent of fuccbois. Your hosts discuss what these scents all have in common, how egregiously they have proliferated toxic masculinity, and our own traumatic experiences with these top offenders.

| It Puts The Perfume On Its Skin | 18 May 2021 | 01:16:37 | |
"Skin scents" are a newly trendy fragrance aesthetique that we can all thank/blame the people who brought you 'no-makeup makeup' and con culture. Just kidding (maybe)! We've had a vague idea of what skin scents are—transparent, musky, "natural"-smelling, non-perfume-y fragrances that mold to the wearer's skin chemistry—but not what's actually in the juice. So we took it up with the molecule master Geza Schöen, perfumer and founder of Escentric Molecules. The fragrance brand's debut fragrance isolated Iso E Super, the molecule that started it all. This lab creation is what gives skin scents that je ne sais quoi responsible for the radiant, ethereal, intimate quality that skin scents have come to be known for. Schöen gives us a breakdown of this molecule as well as all of the molecules in the Escentric Molecule line, along with comprehensive insight into synthetic aroma molecules and their value to the fragrance industry. Also, for loyal listeners or anybody who read this far down in this episode note, grab 15% off of Escentric Molecules' 10pc Discovery Set and/or M+ Discovery Set on LuckyScent.com with the code 'SMELLYA'.

| Cleaning Up "Clean" Fragrance With By Rosie Jane | 11 May 2021 | 01:21:30 | |
“Clean” is the biggest beauty buzzword in recent history, but what does it mean? Rosie Jane Johnston of By Rosie Jane joins us to help demystify how loosely the term is thrown around, yet has come to define the current era of makeup, skincare, and yes, fragrance. By Rosie Jane launched in 2010 as a "clean" fragrance brand, before the term became the rallying cry it is today. She shares her unique, holistic perspective on what it means for her brand and the industry at large.

| The Aroma Of Our Addictions | 04 May 2021 | 01:11:12 | |
Addictions are the hedonistic and sometimes dangerous expression of our indulgences, so it should be of little surprise that scents are a huge indicator, enabler, and even keeper of our fondness for these experiences that may be toxic in nature—but definitely not in this fragrance concept. That's the sweet spot that Akro hits, a new perfume brand from Anaïs Cresp, Jack Miskelly, and Olivier Cresp, the nose behind the six fragrances in their initial offering (and behind Angel, Light Blue, Nina Ricci Nina, Black Opium—so many hits!!). We speak with father-daughter duo Olivier and Anaïs about Akro's olfactory spin on some familiar addictions, and how indulging them through scent can be a powerful experience all its own.

| Why Are We Still Describing Fragrances As OriEnTaL? | 27 Apr 2021 | 00:48:53 | |
You may have noticed how the co-hosts of this podcast audibly cringe every time we talk about a fragrance that is marketed as an "oriental" scent. It feels icky and wrong and way tone-deaf. Because it is. But why does the fragrance industry continue using such an outdated term in such a blasé matter-of-fact way? It's not like there aren't a ton of other more accurate descriptors that could be used to better explain a fragrance. It remains a mystery, however, one that more and more people are starting to rightfully question, ourselves included. While there isn't much discourse on this problematic topic, we reference this flare dot com article by Madelyn Chung for its in-depth research—a perfect springboard for your co-hosts to bounce off of and, as the kids say, go awf.

| Don't Spray Your Dick | 20 Apr 2021 | 00:45:26 | |
How do you apply fragrance? Well, that is a many-pronged question, pondered for many years and with varying degrees of authority on the matter. Tl;dr: it depends. How far do you want your scent to emanate? How many enemies do you have? Why doesn't perfume ever last as long as you want it to, no matter how much you douse yourself? (That we can help with.) Your hosts will answer these queries and many more things that no one and everyone asked us on the matter, imparting our fragrant knowledge on the most effective ways to smell like whatever it is you wish to smell like.

| The Godfather of Smells | 06 Apr 2021 | 01:00:06 | |
If you want to talk about fragrance, you have to talk to Luca Turin. So we did. The biophysicist and writer wrote the book on fragrance—three actually—which were some of the first published guides to contemporary fragrance starting in the 1990s. He's since studied the science of how scent works with our sense of smell, still a grand mystery. Also a mystery: why masculine scents are so...the way that they are, what marks the difference between a scent and a fragrance, what makes some fragrances really bad and really good, and how far off we are to creating an electric nose.

| Getting Sprung On Seasonal Scents | 30 Mar 2021 | 00:44:36 | |
Are you team switch-up-your-fragrance-for-Spring or are you bad at sports? There are arguments for both and we have them here in this episode. Seasonal fragrances do the shelf shuffle twice a year, and now is one of those times. When the rising temps and hems mean more skin to spritz, some of us break out the Spring-y fragrances in favor of our whatever-seasons-come-before-Spring fragrances. What is a Spring fragrance, you ask? Well, allow us to tell you what our ideas of seasonal scents are and why we participate in their cyclical dance of sprays. Sprances.

| Fragrance In Skincare Is Not The Enemy (Unless...) | 23 Mar 2021 | 00:59:20 | |
So many people are alarmed at the presence of added fragrance and scent in their skincare products. But scent in skincare products is also there for the added experiential element of enjoyment. Dermatologists and Skincare Youtube will ditch scent in skincare as any non-essential ingredient that can possibly lead to an allergic reaction would be, but there is a way to live your life and moisturize your face while having your very own little Calgon take me away moment. One skincare brand that's always featured scent in its products is Fresh (and they have actual fragrances as well). We spoke with Lev Glazmen, the brand's CEO, to learn about how Fresh incorporates scent into its products and how to safely enjoy fragrance with your skincare.

Have you ever wondered how so many celebrities have perfumes? We have (obviously). So we asked Steve Mormoris, CEO of Scent Beauty and former CMO at Coty Beauty, how and why famous folks like Cher, Dolly Parton, and Beyoncé create fragrances—and how Lady Gaga's Fame perfume was originally meant to smell like sperm and blood (and whose sperm it was based on).

Supplement brand The Nue Co offers two fragrances that do just that. We speak with VP of product Flo Glendenning about the science behind their Functional Fragrance and Forest Lungs, and how the goal of wellness isn't just self-optimization, it involves connecting to nature and your environment, for which your sense of smell is an alternative route.

| Haley Kiyoko's First Fragrance Hue Is That Hot Girl Scent™ & Then Some | 02 Mar 2021 | 01:02:41 | |
We finally did it. Our obsession with celebrity fragrance brings us to interview queer pop icon Haley Kiyoko about her first fragrance Hue. Two years in the making, it's being released into the world like... tomorrow, but not after a slew of ideations on how to create the kind of scent that feels like a "virtual hug." Before you ask, it's made for everyone by which we mean, it's made for anyone needing an aura of safety and security where one can feel their most authentic. So yeah, that's pretty much everyone, right? Haley talks about what it's like being a queer pop artist in a mainstream space, her favorite scent memories, and why music and scent are such powerful means of expression.

Rodrigo Flores-Roux is the nose behind some of the most popular fragrances you've been spritzed with at the mall (Clinique Happy, John Varvatos, Britney Spears Hidden Fantasy), as well as some of the most celebrated niche, luxury perfumes that he was contractually unable to discuss with us (rhymes with Chom Board). Flores-Roux has been in the scent game since the 1990s, having created probably over 300 perfumes (he lost count). He graciously tells us all about his journey from studying biology in his home country of Mexico, to perfume school in France, and becoming a Master Perfumer at Givadaun, one of the world's most prestigious fragrance houses, here in NYC.

Yeah, we know them too. Known for their striking packaging and uniquely quirky and luxurious scents that can fill your studio apartment as well as they can fill your chalet, Otherland creates interesting home scents for interesting people. Brand founder Abigail Stone comes on the pod to talk about what it's like creating a candle brand, having the world's most prestigious perfumers making their scents, and the thoughtful engineering that actually goes into candle parts and packaging that are the difference between candles that behave and candles that suck (you know the ones).

| A Dupe-ious Discussion | 02 Feb 2021 | 00:48:20 | |
The beauty world is full of dupes galore and for good reason: shit's expensive. But when it comes to fragrance, dupes are on a whole 'nother level— namely, that they are generally shameless about the fact that they are knocking off another designer fragrance. No perfume is too precious to mimic at a lower price point (and concentration)! Naturally, your hosts have fEeLiNgS about the matter. Also, it turns out, so do you. Consider this episode a semi-roundtable discussion of what constitutes a dupe, how do they get away with it, and are they "hurting" the fragrance industry? Also, what's with all these new DTC Warby Parker-wannabe fragrance brands that have us repeatedly stationed in the crosshairs of their targeted ads? Hmm. Hm hm hmm...

| Whiff-Busting With Neurologist & Author Rachel Herz | 26 Jan 2021 | 01:15:02 | |
Would you rather lose your cell phone or your sense of smell? Apparently, a lot of chuckleheads would be OK with losing their sense of smell. BUT! Did you know just how integrated your sense of smell is to your mental and physical well-being, your ability to sniff out an ideal mate, and experiencing a full spectrum of emotions (and flavors!) in 4kHD? Tim Apple could never. Neurologist and smell-specialist Rachel Herz kindly blows our smooth little minds with heaps of information about just how underrated and underestimated the sense of smell is — like how pheromones are a myth, how you can detect various diseases and illness through body odor, how hanging out with babies and other pregnant women can make you more fertile, and how Big Brother may very well soon be using odor profiles to track us. Listen to this episode and never take your sense of smell for granted again! And then immediately go read Rachel Herz's books: The Scent of Desire, Why We Eat What We Eat, and That's Disgusting.
