In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Sergio Tache, founder and CEO of Dossier, the viral fragrance brand rewriting the rules of luxury. What started as a simple question—“Why should smelling good cost $150?”—has evolved into a global movement redefining access, quality, and transparency in the world of scent.Sergio shares his unconventional journey from finance to fragrance, revealing how a curiosity for entrepreneurship led him to challenge one of beauty's most exclusive markets. Dossier began with a clear mission: make high-quality, cruelty-free perfumes with premium ingredients—without the markup. What emerged was not just an affordable alternative, but an entirely new way for consumers to explore fragrance through layering, discovery, and personalization.From its early “impressions” collection inspired by luxury icons to its growing line of original creations like It Factor, Dossier has evolved from “dupe” to disruptor—proving that true luxury is about integrity, not price tags. Sergio also lifts the curtain on the brand's minimalist ethos: recyclable packaging, transparent sourcing, and French craftsmanship that speaks for itself.As the fragrance landscape shifts, Dossier stands out for celebrating individuality and inclusivity. Sergio discusses how consumer preferences are changing—toward genderless scents, mindful spending, and authenticity—and why the future of fragrance lies in accessibility, not aspiration.Tune in to hear how Dossier is democratizing luxury, one scent at a time—and why the next evolution of perfume is all about confidence, creativity, and connection.Shop all Dossier Fragrances!CHAPTERS:0:02 – Introduction & Guest Welcome0:54 – Sergio's Transition from Finance to Fragrance2:18 – Founding Dossier & Making Luxury Accessible4:01 – Value vs. Discovery in Fragrance5:37 – Breaking Down Luxury Pricing7:16 – From “Dupes” to Original Creations10:57 – Fragrance as an Everyday Luxury11:43 – Lessons from Building Dossier16:44 – Craft, Packaging & the Future of FragrancePlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

We have the pleasure of chatting with perfumer Isaac Sinclair on this episode — the only kiwi perfumer (we've heard of) and the olfactive partner for Abel. He tells us about Symrise's upcycling tech that's kind of like the agua fresca of fruit notes, how the "oriental" olfactive family was originally "ambery," and how Abel's directive for creating "natural" fragrance is that none of the ingredients involve fossil fuel derivatives (kind of a first in luxury fine fragrance!). Abel's rebrand launches today with beautiful new bottles, a brat green packaging update, and some new names for familiar scents.

Fragrance fans, this one's for you. We're sitting down with Lore founder and former Rhode CEO Melanie Bender to talk about building a world, not just a brand — and why scent was the next frontier. From translating memory and place into wearable moments to rethinking how fragrance is taught, sold, and even talked about, we dig into the stories behind Lore's debut collection (and why launching Sephora-first was key). Plus, we get into the industry rules she's most excited to break, her current scent obsessions, and the first perfume she fell in love with.Shop this episode Watch our episodes!CALL or TEXT US: 424-341-0426Instagram: @glossangelspod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanTwitter: @glossangelespod, @kirbiejohnson, @saratanEmail: glossangelespodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

In this special Fashion Friday episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav welcomes back fragrance expert Olya Bar for the highly anticipated Fall Fragrance Guide 2025. Together, they explore this season's most sophisticated scent evolutions—where vanilla and oud take on richer, moodier, and more nuanced dimensions.Olya shares how her personal and professional journey has refined her olfactory taste—moving from novelty toward depth and balance. “It's not about losing interest, it's about refinement,” she says, reflecting on how motherhood and her role at Europerfume have shifted her appreciation for scent.Vanilla emerges as the star of the season, but far from the sugary gourmand stereotype. Olya highlights new interpretations—like Vanille Mathonie by Reserve and Afrique, a cinnamon-tinged tropical warmth, and Vanille Poudrée Extrait by Matiere Premiere, a sensual, boozy evolution of the original. Even bolder options like Mancera's Brown Sugar Oud Vanilla blend sweetness with smoky, resinous complexity.The conversation deepens with oud—a timeless yet polarizing note. Olya demystifies its origin, quality variations, and artistry, spotlighting approachable scents like Chabaud's Mysterious Oud and the enduring Montale Dark Aoud. A rising trend? Tropical oud fusions, marrying exotic brightness with earthy warmth.As the fragrance landscape matures, Olya encourages a slower, more intentional approach to scent—treating perfume as a “tasting experience” rather than a trend chase. This fall, she says, is about substance over sugar—fragrances that embody identity, depth, and quiet sophistication.
In this episode of The Entrepreneur Experiment, Gary Fox sits down with Connor Martin, founder of The JAQ Group, home to the viral fragrance brand The Essence Vault, as well as Thomson Carter and Liquid London. From selling wax melts at a Saturday market to building a £60 million e-commerce empire in just five years, Connor's story is a masterclass in resourcefulness, experimentation, and resilience. He reveals how he turned a £16,000 credit card experiment into one of the UK's most successful fragrance groups, scaled during COVID by pure instinct, and rebuilt after nearly losing everything in a logistics nightmare. Connor also shares how he applies ruthless efficiency, “fail fast” culture, and first-principles thinking to stay ahead in the hyper-competitive DTC world. If you want the real playbook for bootstrapping, scaling, and surviving e-commerce chaos, this episode is unmissable. Show Notes In this episode, we cover:

Precocious puberty, also known as early puberty, takes place when a child's body begins to change into an adult body too soon. In today's world, puberty usually begins for girls around age eight, and around age nine for our boys. In recent years, there has also been research showing that in general, our kids are reaching puberty at earlier and earlier ages. There have been lots of different theories put forward regarding what's causing this. Researchers tell us that one factor which triggers early puberty in girls are the fragrance producing chemicals that are in the commercial beauty and skin-care products that flood the market, and that have become especially popular among pre-teen and younger girls in recent years. Research indicates these fragrances have the potential to stimulate parts of the brain that trigger early puberty, risks of psychological problems, heart disease, and breast cancer associated with early puberty. Parents, keep an eye on the products your kids are using.

Servants Meeting @ St. Reweis Coptic Orthodox Church - Wesley Chapel, FL ~ September 21, 2025
What does holiness smell like? In this week's powerful message, we explore the fragrance of holiness — not as something sterile or untouchable, but as something alive, fragrant, and transformative. Building on the foundation of the past two weeks, this sermon dives deep into the Old Testament shadows of oil and incense and reveals how Jesus fulfills them as the true anointing and aroma that pleases the Father. You'll discover: - Why holiness isn't fragile, but fruitful and contagious - How our lives become the aroma of Christ in a broken world - What the coals, the fire, and even the rooster crow mean for your restoration - Why smell is key to truly tasting and seeing God's goodness You don't just carry the label of holiness — you carry the scent of the Savior. Let God turn your failure into fragrance, your shame into a testimony, and your past into power. This is more than a sermon. It's an invitation to smell like Jesus and walk in the aroma of redemption.

From the Archives: Back in May 2024, I had the pleasure of sitting down with John Molloy, Co-founder and CEO of Memo Paris, to explore the fascinating world of fragrance and the art of memory it evokes. John shared his journey from fashion to perfumery, the courage it took to leave a corporate path, and how he and his wife, Clara, built Memo Paris around the idea of capturing places, emotions, and memories through scent. What stood out most was how fragrance becomes more than just a product; it becomes a bridge to culture, connection, and even self-expression. In this conversation, we dived into how Memo Paris was born out of curiosity, love, and creativity, and how the brand has grown from just four fragrances to a collection found in over 60 countries. John opened up about the role of family, mentors, and his wife's poetic vision in shaping Memo Paris, and how every bottle tells a story of place, beauty, and emotion. Here's what you'll learn in this episode: How John's early mentors and family support gave him the courage to take the entrepreneurial leap The story of Memo Paris and how fragrances capture “places of grace” around the world Why building a fragrance brand is about long-term relationships, not quick trends The role of art, storytelling, and creativity in shaping Memo Paris's bottles and scents Sneak peek into new launches, including the fragrance inspired by Cappadocia Join me, Ramon Vela, as we listen to this inspiring episode of The Story of a Brand, where we discover how Memo Paris weaves together travel, memory, and artistry to create fragrances that truly tell a story.

From heartbreak to fragrance empire: How PHLUR became the Taylor Swift of scent When Chriselle Lim took over PHLUR in 2021, she was going through a divorce and wanted to bottle up loneliness itself, specifically, the scent of someone's skin that brings warmth when you're alone. What started as emotional therapy became a fragrance phenomenon with 250,000-person waitlists. This week on The Formula, Kelly chats with the woman behind PHLUR about turning personal trauma into business gold, why fragrance wardrobes are replacing signature scents, and how she built a community so devoted they'll blind-buy every release. From the genius behind fragrance names like Father Figure and Missing Person, to why Gen Alpha treats fragrance like fashion, Chriselle reveals how storytelling drives every scent creation. Plus, she reveals which PHLUR fragrance to try first (spoiler: it's the "blue jeans of fragrance") and her take on what Australia would smell like as a scent.

Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and ally of President Trump, was shot and killed Wednesday as he hosted one of his campus debates at Utah Valley University. A witness described the moment a single gunshot was fired, saying, "people started screaming." Investigators say it appears the shooter in the killing of Charlie Kirk acted alone and it was a targeted act. FBI director Kash Patel said law enforcement had someone in custody, suspected of the killing, but hours later, that person was released. CBS News' Scott MacFarlane reports. Conservative activist Charlie Kirk was a close ally to President Trump. A fixture at Mar-A-Lago, he advised Mr. Trump on some of his Cabinet picks. He was also an early champion of JD Vance to be the president's running mate.

On this Fragrance Friday special of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta is joined by Lev Glazman and Alina Roytberg, the visionary founders of The Maker—a brand that blends fragrance, design, and hospitality into an immersive sensory world. Known for revolutionizing beauty with Fresh, Lev and Alina have taken their creativity further, building an environment where scent is more than perfume—it's memory, fantasy, and emotion brought to life.Their journey began with The Maker Hotel in Hudson, New York, a living canvas of textures and stories, where each space feels like stepping into a narrative. From there, they expanded into fragrance—crafting scents that don't follow rigid note pyramids but instead tell stories. Each bottle is its own world: Fire, inspired by intimate nights by the fireplace; Naked, a celebration of dawn and intimacy; and Revel, born from the joy of milestones and love, designed to bottle life's most unforgettable moments.For Lev, this connection to fragrance runs deep. Growing up in Soviet Russia with limited access to perfumes, he witnessed the transformative power of a single French fragrance his mother acquired on the black market—an experience that shaped his lifelong belief in scent as a gateway to emotion and memory.The Maker's fragrances are intentionally genderless, designed to be universal yet deeply personal, allowing wearers to interpret them through their own lives. More than a brand, The Maker is an invitation to pause, savor, and connect with beauty in a fast-paced world. Tune in to hear Lev and Alina share the inspirations behind The Maker, their creative philosophy, and how they're redefining what fragrance can mean.To learn more about The Maker, visit their website and social media.

Scholar, author, and Literary Olfactologist Dr. Ally Louks burst into the zeitgeist in 2024 with her PhD thesis “Olfactory Ethics, The Politics Of Smell In Modern And Contemporary Prose” and we finally got to sit down and talk about the intersection of art and smell and culture. Breathe in the foul, the fragrant, the peppermint, the tobacco, why motel rooms smell the way they do, the forgotten organ that could control your love life, spices at the root of xenophobia, perfume ads that cruised a movement, obscenity trials, explosions, following your first love and getting the last laugh.Follow Dr. Louks on Instagram and BlueskyA donation went to UN Crisis Relief's Occupied Palestinian Territory Humanitarian FundMore episode sources and linksOther episodes you may enjoy: Rhinology (NOSES), Gustology (TASTE), Misophonology (DISTRACTING SOUND & NOISE RAGE), Disgustology (REPULSION TO GROSS STUFF), Coffeeology (YEP, COFFEE), Black American Magirology (FOOD, RACE & CULTURE), Indigenous Cuisinology (NATIVE COOKING), Cosmetology (GLAM/GROOMING), Genocidology (CRIMES OF ATROCITY)400+ episodes sorted by topicSmologies (short, classroom-safe) episodesSponsors of OlogiesTranscripts and bleeped episodesBecome a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a monthOlogiesMerch.com has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!Follow Ologies on Instagram and BlueskyFollow Alie Ward on Instagram and TikTokEditing by Mercedes Maitland of Maitland Audio Productions and Jake ChaffeeManaging Director: Susan HaleScheduling Producer: Noel DilworthTranscripts by Aveline Malek Website by Kelly R.
