• Just Thinkin' About Dupes and Dudes

  We've been so excited to discuss the newest release from Paraphrase Perfumes, Fruit Thieves, which was totally worth all the customs delays. Thanks to Josh who kindly sent it to us as a gift. We also dip our toes in the water of the ever-present topic of dupes and how they play into the manosphere and Reddit sales. As fun as that seems, most of this episode is heavy on Parfum d'Empire as we talk about a few we've been testing and really enjoying.

• Smells Like the Mating Call of A Tropical Bird

  After a short break from our normal recording routine, we are back and ready to ramble about the perfumes we just can't wear in this god forsaken heat, but some that we do, and others we look forward to wearing in the fall and winter. Also, Jane reveals the big winner from her perfume search from the last episode and let's just say there were some significant changes in heart.All that and a heavy hitter edition of The Game featuring big notes of vanilla, fig, and honey.

• The Sensation of My Nervous System Being On Guard

  This is an episode about a girl who has been on a quest to find her next full bottle purchase. This is also an episode about the paralysis of choice. Luckily, we have a little time, some microphones, and a few people out there willing to hear her story. Also, The Game this week doesn't help shorten the list, that's for sure, but I think we make it out with her selections (kinda).Movie Reference - Desert Fury (1947)Rival Podcast Episode Reference - How did Stéle Become a Household Name on Perfume Room by the great Emma Vernon(00:00) - - Talking about Hellenist and Racyne (08:15) - - Byredo Absolu (14:58) - - The Gift of Wisteria by Aerin (19:27) - - Jane's Quest (33:28) - - Scents We've Been Wearing (39:37) - - The Game Scents Mentioned in this Episode:le chant d'achille by Hellenist / Petit Matin by Maison Francis Kurkdjian / les brass de morphee by Hellenist / Quelque Part and La Terre La Nuit by Racyn / Bal d'Afrique Absolu and Rose of No Man's Land Absolu by Byredo / Oud for Greatness by Initio Parfums / Wisteria by Aerin* / Nitesurf Neroli by Régime des Fleurs / Jasmin by Le Galion / Tonka Latte by Dustia Parfums / Bianco Latte by Giardini Di Toscana / Iris Nazarena by Aedes de Venustas / Ossuary by La Curie / Jours Heureux, Fleurs d'Été, Monsieur, Vermeil, and La Vie en Fleurs by Bienaimé / Comete by Chanel / Borneo 1834 by Serge Lutens / Saffron Hamra by Amouage / Essence Rare by Houbigant / Tropical by Arquiste / Fumabat by Couteau de Poche / Invasion Barbare by Parfums MDCI / No 3 Cologne Curiouse, No 15 Jungle Tobacoo, and No 1 Alkemist Pepper by Binet-Papilion / Falling Trees by Régime des Fleurs / China White by Nasomatto / Feminité du Bois by Serge Lutens / Les Cahiers Secrets by Jouissance / Bal d'Afrique by Byredo / Heliotrope Milkbath by Universal Flowering / Salome by Papillon / Ma Bete by Eris Parfums / Flor de Selva by La Boticá / Amber Teutonic by DS & Durga / Copala by Xinu / Cobra & The Canary by Imaginary Authors / Vanille Antique, Casablanca Lily, Reine de Nuit by Byredo / Jasmin Kama by Rania J / Delta of Venus by Eris Parfums / Peau by Arquiste / Another 13 by Le Labo / Molecule 01 & 02 by Escentric Molecules / Heliodose by MarlouThe Game:Scapular by Chapel Factory / Dandelion Butter by Clue Perfumery / Vetiver by Le Galion / Unspoken Musk by Franscesca Bianchi / Soho by La Boticá / Tropical by ArqusitePlease feel free to email us at [email protected] - Send us questions, comments, or recommendations.

• It Smells LIke the Scariest Night of Your Life

  We speak a bit more about brands and perfumes in general rather than specific releases this episode but we wanted to discuss design, bottles, and what piques our interest when we are shopping new houses and fragrances. Preferences that go beyond just the note list. We also discuss dabbers and our best approach at maximizing their wear in response to a listener message. Spoiler Alert - We're no help!For The Game, I'm not sure the room has ever smelled better as we sample some classics and a couple of surprises. Seriously, it still smells great and I'm writing this hours after recording.References:Kindred Black / Invisible Stories TikTok on Kindred Black bottles(00:00) - - Intro & News (07:56) - - What Draws Us To Perfumes (other than notes) (23:57) - - Listener Email About Dabbers (28:40) - - Scents of The Week (45:01) - - The Game Scents Mentioned in this Episode:Histoire d'Orangers by L'Artisan Parfumeur / Blanche, Mojave Ghost, Bal D'Afrique, and Rose of No Man's Land Absolu(s) by Byredo / Jersey and Coromandel Body Oil by Chanel / Lune Feline by Atelier Des Ors / En Plein Air by Jouissance /  La Terre and La Nuit & Garde by Racyne / Naked Dance, Dead Air, and Delulu by .Oddity / Sex and Jasmine and Burrow by Paraphrase / French Poetry by St Rose / La Fille de Berlin by Serge Lutens / Seven Veils by Byredo / Cierge De Lune by Aedes de Venustas / Accord Oud by Byredo / Side Effect and Oud For Greatness by Initio Parfums / Atlas Fever, French Affair, Amber Sky, and Midnight Special by Ex Nihilo / Ambilux by Marlou / Hwyl by Aesop / Signature by Aedes de Venustas / Comète by Chanel / Monsieur by Bienaimé / Cannabis Santal by Fresh / Le Lion, 1932, and Cuir de Russie by Chanel / Mortel by Cire Trudon / Eau Capitale by Diptyque / Portrait of a Lady by Frederic Malle / Sala by Tsu Lange YorThe GameFleurs d'Été by Bienaimé / Coromandel by Chanel / Bruma by Cire Trudon / Fin de Siecle Paraphrase Perfume / TLY 5755 by Tsu Lange Yor / Borneo 1834 by Serge LutensPlease feel free to email us at [email protected] - Send us questions, comments, or recommendations.
