Podcasts about scents

A repeat guest is a rare occurrence on Smell Ya Later, but when we heard that fragrance aficionado Funmi Monet had something big in the works, we had to bite. Influxious is Monet's brand-new fragrance line, inspired and informed by her Nigerian heritage. She joins us on this episode to talk us through her four debut fragrances, each with its own expression for how you want to feel, connected with a thread of Nigerian ginger. There's the party scent, the vacation scent, the confident scent, and the comforting skin scent with a rarely-smelled base informed by her personal upbringing.[What we smell like today: Abel Double Scoop, The Nue Co Good Spirits]

We are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. — 2 Corinthians 2:15 People who have studied bee communication have observed a complex system in which bees use pheromones (scents). These “chemical messengers” that bees produce and receive are needed for a hive to thrive. For example, scents are central to the mating process. And if the hive is threatened, worker bees give off an alarm scent that rallies other bees to go out and sting potential intruders. Also, each hive is marked with its own queen's scent so that the gatherer bees from that hive will find their way safely back to it.In communication among living things, so much is shared in subtle ways. For instance, we can communicate nonverbally through gestures, looks, posture, tone of voice, and so on. People who have studied human interactions assert that 80-90 percent of our communication is nonverbal, and this can either support or contrast with our words.As Christ-followers, we are encouraged to infuse our communication with the “pleasing aroma of Christ.” There is no way to fake this scent. It can come only through our union with Christ. Ephesians 5:2 recommends, for example, that we “walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Doing that, we can spread the pleasing scent of Christ to the people around us. Lord Jesus, may our actions and words be infused with your scent so that others may sense your presence in us and be drawn to you. Amen.

The difference between designer fragrances, niche houses and artisanal perfumery. How fragrance shapes memory, emotion and personal identity. Why discovery sets are one of the best ways to explore new scents. The growing connection between fragrance, wellness and functional perfumery.

We'd love to hear about them!Of course these fragrances don't only have to be reserved for humid, sleepless nights - they can be used anytime you need to have an instant refresh or mood-re-setting moment.Here's what we waft when it all gets a bit much…NEOM Super Shower Power Body Wash‘Smells like a fresh mint tea – invigorating and energising.

In the heart, essence of mint (spicata mint) for a lively spicy burst of cardamom from Guatemala. The green facet is amplified by salviac (smell of sage leaves).In the background the cascalone blows a wind of aquatic freshness, like a morning dew. A crystal moss note (close to oak moss) creates a woody facet. A breeze of lively and minty freshness.'Diptyque Lemongrass & Geranium Body Spray‘A bright, aromatic spray infused with essential oils known to help repel mosquitoes. A limited-edition design inspired by summer water gardens.Lemongrass, geranium and neroli create a vibrant freshness on the skin.

Created by a mum who just wanted her child to rest.I didn't set out to launch a magnesium sleep spray — I made this because my daughter couldn't sleep.She wasn't dramatic, just quietly anxious. Her little mind wouldn't switch off. Bedtime became a knot of questions, overthinking, and restlessness. So I blended magnesium with lavender and sweet orange. A gentle, calming spray she could trust—and so could I. It helped her sleep. Properly.And once I saw it worked for her, I started using it too—after long days, before travel, when a migraine threatened, or when my own brain refused to slow down. Now it lives in every bag and on every bedside table. Not just for sleep. For calm.What it doesHelps you fall—and stay—asleep Spray on feet, wrists, or chest. Breathe deeply. Sleep comes easier.Calms anxiety For that wired-at-bedtime feeling, or mid-day overwhelm. A few sprays help settle things down.Relieves muscle tension & restless legs Ideal after workouts, desk days, or long flights.Soothes migraines & tension headaches Apply to neck and temples at the first sign of a flare-up.Supports sleep during perimenopause and menopause Great for night sweats, restless sleep, and general hormonal chaos—no hormones involved.What's in itMagnesium Sulfate – Known to relax muscles, reduce anxiety, and support melatonin production.Lavender Essential Oil – The classic calming scent, soothing and familiar.Sweet Orange Essential Oil – Uplifting and comforting; balances out bedtime anxiety.Nothing synthetic, nothing sticky – Vegan, cruelty-free, and handmade in Norfolk.How to use itFor sleep: 4–6 sprays on wrists, feet, or backs of knees about 20 minutes before bed.For muscle tension: 8–10 sprays, massage into sore areas.For anxiety: Spray on palms, rub, and inhale slowly.For migraines or tension headaches: Apply to back of neck and temples.For children aged 5+: 2–3 sprays after bath or before bed.On-the-go: Use before travel, meetings, or school runs to take the edge off.'

Looking for some truly outstanding and very affordable fragrances? Have we got an episode for you! This week, as challenged by you, we went on a scent safari sniffing our way around the new fragrances in one of the U.K's most beloved high street shops. The results? Well, we were rather awe-struck with how wonderful they were, to be honest.Suzy is totally in love with a new perfume shop she popped into for a (free!) half-hour hand and massage the other day; and we've also got some suggestions for a listener desperately missing their favourite (now discontinued) fragrance, and start this week's episode with some lovely feedback about a previous listener prescription…Listener feedback:Anja:‘Hello, after listening to your brilliant podcast episode over the weekend and the scent prescription on marocan scents one perfume came straight into my mind: Andi Tauer's L'air du Desert Marocain.Thanks again for your podcast and hard work, it brings us all joy every week. I blind bought DS&Durga Big Sur Eucalyptus after Suzy described it and it so amazing and exactly whati was looking for (for years!) in a eucalyptus scent. Thanks, Anja'Marks & Spencer fragrances: We asked our Instagram followers to suggest a high street store to find some affordable fragrances in, and share our favourites. The top request by FAR was Marks & Spencer. So, we went to the Oxford Street store, and were SO impressed by the selection, layout, accessibility and thoughtfulness that's gone in to the design - not only of the scents, but the space they're displayed in.Not only was the layout chic and welcoming, the shelves were well-stocked with blotters and testers, making it a truly inviting place to go and explore perfumes (both M&S own-brand ones, and a great curation of other brands).First up, we sniffed the Summer Limited Edition duo (which we'd already promised to test for you a couple of episodes ago):Suzy's favourite:Marshmallow Delight £12 for 100ml eau de parfum ‘Indulge in a scent that feels soft, sweet and irresistibly playful with this Marshmallow Delight eau de toilette from our Discover range. Juicy raspberry brings a bright opening, melting into fluffy marshmallow and smooth cream for a comforting, dessert-like finish.'Nicola's favourite:Solar Fleur £12 for 100ml eau de parfum ‘Capture the warmth of sunlit skin with this radiant eau de toilette from our Discover range. A bright burst of mandarin opens the scent, softened by delicate jasmine and wrapped in the creamy sweetness of coconut milk. The result is a smooth, glowing fragrance that feels effortless and uplifting.'Then we made a beeline for the brand new M&S Studio Fragrance collection - and were both completely blown away! The quality is apparent the second you pick up the bottles: stylishly pared back they feel satisfyingly weighty with good quality lids, and even the labels are slightly recessed - a very luxe touch, all for £22.50 per 100ml eau de perfume. And the SCENTS! Oh my. So many great ones to choose from (shall we do a whole series?) but we chose…Suzy's favourites:M&S Studio Amber Crème‘This Amber Crème eau de parfum is a refined and evocative choice. Sensual amber and rich vanilla combine with notes of rum, patchouli and crème anglaise to create a lavish, indulgent scent.Top note: Brown Sugar Middle note: Tonka Base note: Amber'M&S Studio Ginger Flower ‘Enjoy a fresh and contemporary scent with the Ginger Flower eau de parfum. The heart of the fragrance combines lively ginger with sweet citrus and orange blossom for an uplifting accord. Sensual white musk and blond woods create a warm, grounded finish.Top note: Ginger Middle note: Orange blossom Base note: White musk'Nicola's favourites:Darkest Vanilla‘Enjoy a rich and velvety accord with the Darkest Vanilla eau de parfum. The sensual vanilla heart is complemented by warm amber, luscious tonka bean and dreamy patchouli. Notes of floral orchid and sweet brown sugar ensure a luxurious finish.Top note: Vanilla bean Middle note: Tonka Base note: AmberSheer Musk This Sheer Musk eau de parfum from M&S Studio is a subtly sensual choice. A heart of vegan sublimolide™ musk and ambrette absolute is complemented by floral rose and velvety orris. Cashmere and sandalwood notes create a grounded finish.Top note: Pink pepper Middle note: Cashmere Base note: MuskThey really are knocking it out of the park at M&S - in the beauty area (our fave, obvs) but also in their fashion and accessories. So many reasons to be excited again about going in-store! We must go back to try more perfumes, though, don't you think?Nicola loved her Atelier Rebul mixing masterclass experience, and this is a house we want to tell you much more about (and smell our way through all their creations) in future episodes.Meanwhile….Suzy had the most incredible FREE half hour scented hand & arm massage at Norfolk Natural Living in their Lambs Conduit Street shop. This relaxing, unhurried ritual uses their all-natural products and ends with a bespoke fragrance discovery.Suzy chose to finish with a layered spritz of:Geranium & Tomato Leaf ‘Beyond the glass the garden breathes a little slower. Leaves stir with a soft whisper as the warmth begins to soften at the edges. The scent of crushed tomato vine lingers green and vivid against the rosy sweetness of geranium bloom. Neroli drifts through the shade like a pale ribbon of light while cool earth settles everything into an easy calm.It is the sort of afternoon that asks nothing of you. Sun warming terracotta. Green stems rubbed gently between the fingers. A bright citrus breeze wandering through open windows carrying lime and eucalyptus with it. The garden smells alive and a little unruly in the loveliest way.'(Layered with)Rose Garden‘The afternoon unfolds in layers of scent and light. I sit beneath the cedar tree, reading... The breeze is bright, alive, moving through the garden like thought. It brings the first shimmer of geranium leaf and Sicilian lemon, quick and green, a scent that catches the light like a silver blade. Then, the roses. They lean into the air, full and fresh, their sharp sweetness almost shocking after the citrus. The garden hums with life: petals opening, leaves trembling, sunlight deepening into gold.This rose is no dowager; it's an ingénue with perfect posture. Geranium keeps it clean and quick, jasmine gives it flesh, cedar lends gravity, and amber that quiet, golden hum anchors it all. The air itself seems to thrum, half floral, half mineral, alive with that peculiar English freshness that smells of rain remembered rather than falling.'The fragrances start from £20 for 10ml and every one Suzy smelled was genuinely excellent (though we also need to go bs k here and try many more!)Norfolk Natural Living have stores around the U.K. (as well as selling their products online:You can enjoy the free Norfolk Natural Living hand & arm massage at selected stores (Cambridge, Southwold, Lambs Conduit St London, Woodbridge, Aldeburgh & Holt] by booking online, here:https://tinyurl.com/Norfolk-Natural-Living-MassageListener Prescription:Meira:Hi! I'm reaching out because I've heard you are experts in tracking down lost or discontinued fragrances. I've been on a long quest to find Ananya by The Body Shop (the original 1980s/90s version).​It holds so many memories for me, and I've been struggling to find it anywhere. Since it seems to be unavailable to ship to Europe, I was wondering if you could help me find it or, if not, recommend a fragrance that is a very close match in terms of scent profile (tuberose, peach, coconut, and sandalwood).​Any guidance or tips you could provide would mean the world to me. Thank you so much for your time and help!Suzy suggests:Chopard Casmir‘Casmir was launched in 1992. The nose behind this fragrance is Michel Almairac. Top notes are Peach, Coconut, Mango, Fruits and Bergamot; middle notes are Geranium, Jasmine, Floral Notes and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Vanilla, Amber, Sandalwood, Musk, Patchouli and Woodsy Notes.'Kayali Eden Sweet Peach | 35 ‘Sweet, luscious, and velvety, Eden Sweet Peach | 35 Eau de Parfum is pure happiness in a bottle. On first spritz, sweet-and-tangy peach and crisp red apple create a bright, mouthwatering opening while creamy frangipani adds softness and warmth at the heart of the juice. As the fragrance dries down, comforting musk melts into the skin, leaving a tender yet addictive trail that radiates effortless joy.'(Layered with)Kayali Utopia Vanilla Coco | 21‘Take a dip in your daydreams, where the clouds seem within reach and you're blissfully floating in a glittering pool of possibilities. Creamy sandalwood and sweet white florals are topped with milky coconut, then whipped together with vanilla bourbon to evoke that sense of freedom from reality, transporting you to your perfect world, your Utopia.'On The Scent MagazineTo purchase a print issue of the first issue of On The Scent Magazine follow this link to order yours (delivery worldwide):

Listen to today's podcast... Taste, touch, sight, sound and smell. We are often bombarded and feel that we are on sensory overload. Most everything we know, feel, understand, and struggle with comes through our senses, including pain and pleasure. But how often do you actually pay attention to your specific senses? By focusing on all five of our senses, we can promote health and wellbeing in our workplace. We can use these individual senses to boost our creativity, productivity and happiness. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency! Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Celebration Of The Senses Day: Look for ways to boost each of the five senses in your workplace. Taste. Did you know that chewing gum can help you stay focused for longer on tasks that require continuous monitoring? And that chewing gum can improve concentration in visual memory tasks? Touch. I like having squish toys to play with while I am on the phone or listening to an on-line learning course. It helps me to concentrate more on what is being said. And research has found that these fidget toys are most beneficial to those who are more kinesthetic learners. Sight. Try adding a bouquet of flowers. One study found that including plants and flowers in your work environment improved productivity and creativity. Sound. Research from Cornell University found that employees who listened to happy music were able to cooperate and make group decisions better than employees who worked without a background soundtrack. If you're going to play music in your workplace, the most important thing you need to do is match the type and tempo of the music to the task and level of concentration required. Smell. Scents are tied directly to the part of the brain that is linked to memory and emotion, so scents can influence both. Some scents are known to reduce stress, others are known to improve productivity. Play around with mild scents in your workspace to see what you prefer, just remember not to interfere with your colleagues and their ability to enjoy their workspace.

The wine: Elephant Hill Tempranillo Rosé 2025, Hawke's Bay, $29.00 A distinctive and enticing bouquet, a rosé made from Tempranillo is a rare find in NZ. Scents and flavours of peaches and red apple, a leesy and a clay earth complexity. A delicious wine with a silky-cream mouthfeel, superfine fruit tannins and medium+ acid line and flavours that reflect the bouquet. A very light positive reductive quality adds to the complexity. Lengthy and dry on the finish, an excellent example. The Food: Prawn dumplings steamed then quickly pan-seared with sesame oil. Finished with an oyster and soy sauce. Dress the dish up with some chives and ginger. Rosé wines respond to traditional Asian fare by contrasting the fresh flavours and intense spikes from the sauces especially the sweet and salty soy. Rosé when young should have a crispness and brightness with a racy acidity and generous mid-palate fruit sweetness. The season: The 2025 season in Hawke's Bay was excellent overall. A warm, dry spring with very good flowering and an early, mostly uninterrupted, start to the growing season. The summer was a little cooler but that did not stop flavour development and ripeness in the fruit. The flavour development and overall ripeness timeline contributed lead to one of the earliest for the region. So far, the wines I have encountered show a vibrancy and freshness, excellent balance and length. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On The Scent Podcast Season 7, Episode 36: Classic Scents Remixed & ReinventedChanel N°5 Eau de ToiletteHoused in a redesigned, minimalist (label-free) bottle inspired by the original 1924 silhouette, the classic scent profile is absolutely there (bubbly aldehydes, light florals) but with a modern, more casually dressed feeling. Lighter, more intimate, but with a grounding depth beyond the beloved soapy floralcy, Chanel describes it as: ‘A woody abstract floral fragrance that is powerful and textured – an invitation to discover N°5 in a new light.'Chanel N°5 L'EAU Eau de Toilette‘Less abstract than its forebears, the composition of N°5 L'EAU radiates citrus like sun-drenched honey. Top notes of lemon, mandarin and orange soar skyward with the aldehydes. Like a second wind, you can hear the rustle of flowers. Rose melds with airy jasmine and a new fraction of ylang-ylang, more modern than ever.Behind this floral whirlwind, vetiver and cedar impart a novel dynamism, softened by white musks notes. Never has Nº5 been so natural. So fresh.'Chanel N°5 EAU PREMIÈRE‘A floral, luminous and airy interpretation of N°5. The voluptuousness of Ylang-Ylang from the Comoros blends into the harmonious and delicate facets of May Rose and Jasmine. Aldehydes grant it a unique presence, and the smooth touch of Vanilla and musky notes create an incredibly feminine trail.'Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Eau de ParfumThe quintessential sun-kissed, tropical blend now offers a more intense hit of sunset in a scent, via creamy coconut, tiare flower, warm amber, and vanilla. They say: ‘More intense. More glow. The unmistakable magic of notes of tiare flower and coconut, paired with notes of amber, sandalwood and vanilla, made even richer.'AERIN Mediterranean Honeysuckle Soleil (Summer Edition)This limited-edition 2026 solar floral fragrance is inspired by sun-drenched Mediterranean beach holidays. It features notes of neroli, monoi flower, and coconut milk, offering a warmer, creamier, and more radiant twist on the original. Founder, Aerin Lauder, says: ‘Mediterranean Honeysuckle Soleil is a radiant twist on our signature fragrance. This limited-edition was inspired by memories of sun-drenched beach days I have spent on the Mediterranean with family and friends. The scent reminds me of warm sun-kissed skin after a day by the sea with its notes of monoi flower, neroli and coconut milk.'DS & Durga Debaser In BloomReimagining the original fig scent with a brighter, creamier profile this version features top notes of raspberry flower and white currant, a heart of white gardenia, a base of musk and the highly intriguing grape soda-like ‘cassette tape' accord. Fascinating and resolutely modern!Founder David Seth Moltz explains: ‘Debaser is a cult favorite D.S. & DURGA fume inspired by my preteen years hanging out with cool older kids. Music was the binding force of the group. I was introduced to many bands, but the Pixies reigned supreme. I remember getting Doolittle on cassette tape. Back then, tapes smelled distinctly of grapey-orange blossom due to a mysterious mixture of polyester, magnetics, and lubricants from which they were manufactured. You would go to your local record shop, get the latest tape, and skate home fast to listen. When you tore off the wrapping, that familiar aroma was like an unconscious precursor to new music.Playing with a perfume formula is like reworking a beloved song. New elements emerge, this version of Debaser renders beauty from the mundane. The nostalgic aroma of tapes amplified with choice fruit and flower notes. It wears easy and gives a perfect spring-to-summer vibration, not unlike the music that inspired it.'Petit Fracas"Play the game of love with Petit Fracas de Robert Piguet eau de parfum. The scent has an audacious air, inspired by our iconic Fracas. Petit is fresh, youthful and feminine, with a playful innocence. Flirtatious and charming, Petit Fracas opens with notes of fresh citrus and pear. At the heart of the scent is a foral with a vintage edge: tuberose and white flowers. Sophisticated, with a touch of whimsy, the base is underscored by the elegance of musk and sandalwood sprinkled with a touch of chocolate."Don't forget it's the brilliant Barnes Fragrance Fair coming up soon!

On this week's Modern Retail Podcast, co-hosts Gabi Barkho and Melissa Daniels delve into the vast world of product LTOs, also known as limited-time offers. In the CPG space, these are usually limited-edition flavors or scents that brands drop to create consistent newness.  Spring tends to be a big season for LTOs as brands refresh their assortment. And the trend is only getting bigger. Even legacy brands like Peeps are releasing more unique flavors this year, like Rita's-Italian-Ice- and Pop-Tarts-flavored marshmallows. This episode looks at why these limited releases have become a big part of brands' marketing strategy, as they are now a major sales driver.  Joining the show this week is Ryan Meegan, co-founder of Dude Wipes, to talk about the ways the brand has grown its customer base through limited-edition and seasonal scents. And the proof is in the numbers. The 2025 seasonal assortment included the fall-themed take on pumpkin spice, Dumpkin Spice, and the winter holiday scent Dingle. About 69% of households that bought these Dude Wipes products were new to the brand, totaling about 150,000 new households. In this week's episode, Meegan discusses: The importance of developing seasonal SKUs that stand out in the stale wipes aisle. How Dude Wipes is now planning annual inventory around these products. How scents that began as seasonal test runs became important revenue drivers for Dude Wipes.

How many different scents do you think your nose is able to smell? The answer is about 10,000. How does your nose tell the difference between a rose and a skunk? Until only recently, scientists really weren't sure.Now we know that humans and mammals detect smells by using at least 1,000 different genes. These genes are located in every cell in your body, but they are active only in your nose. This discovery, say scientists, gives them their first insight into how smell works. Before this, said one scientist, “We had almost no knowledge of the olfactory system and this really opens up the molecular study of smell in a very fascinating way.”They say that each of the different genes seems designed to respond to a small group of odors. As each group of genes does its part, the entire system is able to recognize everything we can smell. These genes pass signals from the nerve cells in the nose to a small region of the brain called the olfactory bulb. Now that smell genes are identified, researchers say they can begin to understand how odors are detected and how the brain interprets those signals.Our sense of smell relies on a very elegant and sophisticated system. Imagine, 1,000 genes lie at the heart of that system. Each one of those genes is information—a programmed code that is designed to make sense of what we smell. Information, programming and decoding are all terms that assume that we have a highly intelligent Creator who designed our sense of smell!Genesis 27:27“And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed:”Prayer: Dear Father in heaven, I thank You for my ability to detect scents. As scientists continue to learn how You have designed our sense of smell, cause them to recognize Your genius and so be drawn to the cross of Jesus Christ. Amen.REF.: Scientists find genes that let nose make scents of what it smells. Minneapolis Star-Tribune. Image: Head Olfactory Nerve Labeled, Patrick J.

Plus, the girlies explain why smell is uniquely different from all our other senses, the Proustian relationship between scent and memory, and how capitalism has transformed our desire to smell good into a billion dollar identity crisis.

Like Joseph, we're being refined and strengthened to appreciate blessings and resist temptations. From March 8, 2026

Some businesses don’t just sell a product — they sell a feeling. They create an experience you can’t fully describe on a website, because the magic is sensory. It’s atmosphere. It’s memory. It’s the thing that makes you walk into a space and instantly feel like you belong there — or like you’ve been there before. From a business standpoint, that’s a tricky thing to build. You can’t ship “vibe” in a box. But you can design it — intentionally — through the details: the ingredients, the storytelling, the setting, the community you build around it. Johanna Divine sits in for Christiaan Mader on this edition of Out to Lunch and hosts two guests who make their living creating experiences that are hard to explain, but easy to feel. Rochelle Campbell is the founder of Pure Intentions Candle Company, a small candle business based in Youngsville specializing in clean-burning candles — and candle-making experiences that are part product, part party, part community event. Yvette Landry is a musician, educator, author and interpreter, who – between playing shows, teaching and writing books – has also built a successful business hosting Cajun music and history tours in the Atchafalaya Basin. Candles and music are two very different products, but both Rochelle and Yvette are in the business of creating a feeling people want to come back to. Rochelle is building a product line around clean ingredients, seasonal storytelling, and in-person experiences that connect people to her brand. Yvette is proving that culture can be both art and enterprise — through live performance, books, teaching, and tours that translate Acadiana to the world. Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.You can find photos from this show by Alisha Zachery Lazard at itsacadiana.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scientists are beginning to decode how floral scents attract specific pollinators. Mónica Carlsen of the Missouri Botanical Garden is taking her research of anthuriums, a common household plant known for their wide leaves and protruding spike, from the Climatron and will soon travel to Colombia to capture plant scents in the wild, aiming to better understand the “invisible language” between plants and pollinators. We also hear from Stephen and Peter Sachs Museum curator Nezka Pfeifer about the museum's latest exhibit “Smelling the Bouquet: Plants and Scents in the Garden.”

Why can't you walk down the detergent aisle without triggering a migraine? In this follow-up episode, I break down the hidden connection between odor sensitivity and chronic migraines, and why it's not just "how you're wired." Here's what most people don't know: when you smell something, you're inhaling molecules that enter your bloodstream. For migraine sufferers, whose "toxin buckets" are already near the top, even small exposures, a candle, ground beef cooking, the coffee aisle, can tip you into a full migraine. I also share the shocking Bath & Body Works story: how they pumped 20-30 pounds of fragrance into Grand Central Station, turning unsuspecting commuters into walking migraine triggers. In this episode, you'll learn why there are two levels of odor sensitivity, one that only happens during migraines, and another that's constant, even when you feel fine. I explain why smelling something means absorbing toxins into your bloodstream, and how the "toxin bucket" concept changes everything once you understand it. You'll discover why odor sensitivity isn't genetic or hardwired, it's actually a symptom that can improve over time. And I'll show you how to build margin in your system so that wildfire smoke, perfume, or holiday candles don't automatically ruin your day. This episode is for you if you avoid certain grocery store aisles because the smell is overwhelming, if your family thinks you're making it up when you complain about odors, if you've been told you're just sensitive to smells and that's how you are, or if you want to stop living in fear of triggers and rebuild trust in your body. If you're having 8+ migraine days per month and you're ready to drain your toxin bucket and reclaim your life, I can help.

#170: As we ease into the holiday season, we're revisiting a beautiful conversation with scholar Xuelei Huang about her book Scents of China: A Modern History of Smell. You'll definitely want to gift this aromatic treasure to yourself, or someone you love!In this episode, Frauke sits down with University of Edinburgh Senior Lecturer and author Xuelei Huang to discuss her new book Scents of China: A Modern History of Smell. In the conversation she reveals a unique perspective on the smellscapes that permeated Chinese life from the eighteenth through mid-twentieth century. Xuelei explains the concept of "smell as the stranger" and shares some of the rich olfactory imagery of 18th century China through references in the novel Dream of the Red Chamber. She then tells how nineteenth century Shanghai shows an exemplary depiction of deodorization, which started to happen at that time. And how a subsequent (re)perfuming changed the olfactory smellscape of China once again. Xuelei furthermore showcases the unique way Mao Zedong used olfactory tactics to transform politics in the early twentieth century. Whether you know a lot about Chinese history or not, this conversation will give you new perspectives and leave you longing to explore more.Learn more about Xuelei Huang here: ⁠https://www.ed.ac.uk/profile/xuelei-huang⁠Check out her book Scents of China: A Modern History of Smell.Follow Frauke on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@an_aromatic_life ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit Frauke's website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.anaromaticlife.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn about Frauke's ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Scent*Tattoo Project⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

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.
