On this week's episode I'm exploring the relationship between scent and music with British singer, songwriter, musician and producer Låpsley. We discuss the fragrances that she is obsessed with, how she has always loved the smell of leathers, and what inspired her to create 6 Hands, a scented candle to be burned whilst listening to her new album 'I'm a Hurricane, I'm a Woman in Love'.

"Kushbu" is a Punjabi words that means "the enjoyment of smell". It's also the name of Perfumer Gurpal Singh Sahota's fragrance brand. In this episode I talk with Gurpal about how a snowboarding accident kick-started his journey to becoming a Perfumer and how he brings his East African, North Indian and British cultural background into his work. It's a fascinating insight into many different fragrant journeys.

In this week's episode I'm reporting live from Barnes Fragrance Fair.
