1w ago00:51:09Tap to summarizeSlutty teen elixirs, plastic clouds, milky vanillas, musty vanillas, and an impressive new collection from everyone's favorite cloven-footed fashion brand — these are some of the new smells we tackle today, choking through a cloud of blotters without proper ventilation.

Transcribe →231: Smelling like a wolf in chypre's clothing
3w ago00:44:54Tap to summarizeSeems like fragrance is revisiting a certain kind of scent profile combo dubbed by traditional perfumery as chypre (a scent profile we both keep forgetting about). We smell a few modern releases taking the idea and giving it a modern interpretation, as well as a few more new-ish scents in varying degrees of "sure, okay!" and "oh yes, that!"[What we smell like today: MEMO Paris Cap Camarat, D'orsay Tonka Hysteria]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)
Transcribe →230: Is anyone having fun in fragrance?
Apr 2100:50:46Tap to summarizeSort of, yes, kind of, more than before... It's just us this episode, chatting about some fun new fragrance releases (Vacation's new Orange Gelée collection, Born To Stand Out, etc), some BBB [beautiful but basic] fragrances (Guerlain's wedding collection, yet another Born in Roma, etc), and some ones we do not quite understand, but "sure, why the hell not?" (Notewrks's new "for men but also everyone" fragrances).[What we smell like today: Born to Stand Out Musc X, Ellis Brooklyn Isla Sirena]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)
Transcribe →229: Snif passes the test [Feat. Bryan Edwards]
Apr 1400:57:17Tap to summarizeOn this week's ep, we have Bryan Edwards, co-founder & CEO of Snif, one of the first brands to kick off the DTC fragrance-buying format. With clever and experimental scent releases that have always injected a bit of cheeky humor into fragrance, they're stretching in polar directions in a way that most brands would dare to endeavor — one way that engages with nostalgia-driven fun with pancake, milk and breakfast cereal, gasoline, and croissant scents; and another way that caters more plainly to fragrance's slightly more underserved audience (straight guys who wash their face with soap but are thinking of getting face soap... and now fragrance).[What we smell like today: Le Labo Violette 30, Snif 2%]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)
Transcribe →228: BICHE mode [feat. Alexandra Pauly of Biche]
Apr 701:03:17Tap to summarizeWhile perfume for dogs continues to miss, one pet grooming category — the shampoo and coat conditioner — remained woefully underconsidered. Enter Biche, a luxury pet grooming line launched by friend of the pod, Alexandra Pauly. The former High Snobiety beauty editor, fragrance enthusiast, and dog mom set out to create a line of pet shampoo and coat conditioning oil that would make bathtime a more sensorial ritual — and now it's here! We chat with Pauly on this episode about how to create a different kind of fragrance and personal care brand, how shampoo for dogs is different than shampoo for humans, and creating a signature scent with pod favorite Carlos Huber.[What we smell like today: Andrea Maack Muse, J Scent On A Cloud]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)

Mar 3100:42:43Tap to summarizeAn us chat about a week of new smells, featuring this modern, salty, solar fragrance accord that seems to be everywhere now, being humbled by luxury brands, new venture capital-backed fragrances, a listener voice message about the alleged almond-pocalypse, and, y'know, the general ranting we inevitably do.[What we smell like today: Discotheque Lola At Coatcheck, IRFĒ Marshmallow Musk]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)

Transcribe →225: A case against discovery sets 🧐
Mar 1700:49:36Tap to summarizeWe're back after a wee break (vacation, life, etc) with a listener question about the pros/cons/whats with plunking down the dollars for a full-size scent vs. taking home a discovery set when in the market for niche fragrances abroad. We also discuss a handful of new scents from D.S. & Durga's Debaser In Bloom, Summer Fridays Sunlit Vanilla, Non-Fiction, Sidia, and more.[What we smell like today: Nonfiction The Beige, SIDIA Midas]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)
Transcribe →224: How much can an algorithm 'do' perfumery?
Feb 2400:57:22Tap to summarizeWhen art & design turn their ambitions toward technology and olfaction, how much does a machine powered by algorithms, AI, or both, challenge an industry known for gatekeeping (and upcharging), and how much does it supplant the craftsmanship and skill of a perfumer? We discuss such iffiness after experiencing a custom scent-making installation that questions, "What if every human could create their own scent?"[What we smell like today: Prada Infusion de Santal Chai, "Forever Yong" made by Sable using Algorithmic Perfumery]🌐 Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live☎️ Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater, and we may respond on a future episode.📱 Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3💌 Leave a comment in our Spotify episode prompts and/or a (nice) review wherever you stream (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ only)
