    219: You Asked: Blind buys, stinky roommates, and tacky perfume displays
    Jan 13 2026

    We haven't done one of these in a while — it's a listener Q&A episode in which we address your queries about fragrance and non-fragrance related things like: how to blind buy "successfully," how to display your perfumes in a non-tacky way, how to tactfully tell someone they stink, where all this perfume hype culture is going, any former guests we'd love to have on again, the most repulsive scent, and more interpersonal anecdotes to further our parasocial relationship!

    218: Is perfume culture peaking?

    That's what the rumors (industry insights) say, but based on what we've been seeing, the fraghead community is very much so cooking.

    217: Our Official Scent Predictions for 2026
    Dec 23 2025
    Are we psychic? According to the history....... not no. Every year, we have a stab at what we can expect to smell in the coming year's forecast, based on current trends, emerging trends, the thousands of PR emails we receive trying to make [redacted] happen, and what we've been seeing and smelling on the streets. And most of the time, we are correct! Consider this a free seminar on fragrance marketing and trend forecasting.

    215: TASTE!!! [feat. Serviette]
    Dec 2 2025
    We speak of brands often, sometimes (often) critically, other times admiringly. One such brand in the latter is Serviette, helmed by Trey Taylor. A creative culmination of his own tastes, education in fashion, and upbringing in the Great North, Serviette explores the tension between class with modern olfactory concepts, and a whole moodboard's worth of far-reaching cultural references.

    214: Maybe smelling basic isn't that bad 🤷‍♀️
    Nov 25 2025
    Things have gotten too complicated, too niche, too try-hard. Sometimes it's nice when familiar things are done well — as you'll hear in this episode, in which we smell through some newness from Billie Eilish and Kayali.

    Another year, another round of smelly things you can buy for your loved ones, obligatory gift recipients, assigned gift swap honorees, and also just yourself! We have roughly a dozen items that smell nice, abet nice smells, are delicious, and/or can be lit on fire in this episode, as well as an abundant balance of chit-chat about smells we've smelled lately. (So, you know, the usual.)

  • 212: How to have the best-smelling hair wash day with Cécred

    212: How to have the best-smelling hair wash day with Cécred
    Nov 11 2025
    We are delighted to welcome Robyn Melissa Watkins, Senior VP of Product Development at Cécred (AKA Beyoncé's haircare brand). After a truly Holy shit, how does my hair look this good airdried?? moment Sable had when trying the line, we were very excited to discover not only how its signature scent Temple Oud was created, but also the formula development process to create products that can enhance all hair types and their unique needs (obviously, we can only speak for our own hair experiences, but the experiences so far have been pretty great!).
