I am joined by Clara Weale of Early Modern Perfumes, the creator of Celadon: a perfume so utterly unique in its take on “green,” that it stops people every time they smell it in my studio. We talk about her fragrance collection, living in Glasgow, and our shared love for Tilda.

George Chlouk makes the most gorgeous fragrances you can’t get your hands on. We talk about his life in Beirut, creating tinctures for other perfumers, and why he doesn’t want to smell like stew ingredients.

I’m speaking with Rémi in this episode. You may know him from TikTok, or as one of the mods for r/DIYFragrance on Reddit, or one of ten admins for something called Discord. I still need to figure out what that last one is all about. We talk about his love for insects and what he believes a tarantula would smell like.

Stargazer

I’m chatting with Dominique Michelle Astorino, an astrologer living in Paris with her golden retriever. Is your zodiac relevant to scent, or is this just a ploy to have you listen to our conversation that you will absolutely love?

Everything is OSM

Tuesday Jul 23, 2024

This episode features Pia Long, perfumer and co-founder of Olfiction and Boujee Bougies. We tried out new a podcast app with success, and we did our absolute best to stay on track and keep our conversation to one hour. So with that, dear listeners, please enjoy 1 hour, 1 minute, and 6 seconds of our conversation. Someday I will figure out how to bring back sounds into episodes. (But not today.)
