Listening but wish there were changes
Editing thus review after listening to more episodes—— I discovered this podcast recently and was generally enjoying it considering there are not many fragrance podcasts out there. Suzy is excellent to listen to - knowledgeable, funny, intelligent. Nicola is a bit insufferable - silly commentary, tendency to derail, simplistic take (generally jumping to sexualizing nearly every scent). Nicola also has a tendency to say comments steeped in stereotyping of other countries and cultures. Her comments on the episode covering Penhaligons Cairo are especially embarrassing and cringey for her as it indicates her small world view. Suzy on the other hand is great to listen to.

I have worked in the beauty industry but have been out of work for a while and have become less enchanted with fragrance (sadly). However, the podcast has relit the fire within me and I...Read full review »
