This episode of Skin Talks dives deep into the invisible world of fragrance, the history, the psychology, and the hidden power it has over how we feel, how others perceive us, and even the skincare we use. Hosted by Beate and Natascha from Boutique Skin Envie, we welcome back Mike Rozbih of Montréal’s Lescento to unpack everything from Egyptian distillations to niche perfumery, natural vs. synthetic notes, the art of subtle scent, and why your signature fragrance is your most personal accessory.

In this episode you’ll learn:

• Why scent bypasses logic and speaks straight to your emotions

• How fragrance evolved from royal status symbol to mass-market trend to today’s niche comeback

• The real difference between “natural” and “chemical” scents, and what your pet’s reaction can teach you

• Why a shouting, cloying perfume makes you less interesting, and how subtlety projects true confidence

• The power of a signature scent: how and where to wear it, plus why it smells different on you than on your best friend

• What cosmetics, candles and spas know about scent manipulation, and how to sniff out what really works for your skin and mood
