The New Savant Co-Founders Ingrid Nilsen and Erica Anderson join me in the Perfume Room this week! The New Savant is a queer, women-owned, candle brand with handmade, small-batch candles, inspired by unique personal stories, and scented by top industry perfumers.

Erica (a Fortune’s 40 Under 40) was Twitter News employee number one, and Ingrid (a Streamy Awards recipient and former Covergirl) was influencer number one! Prior to TNS, she was a YouTube Beauty/Lifestyle YouTube creator with 6+ million followers!

TODAY WE DISCUSS: scent memories, their respective prior careers, the influencer economy, being exes in biz together, sourcing inspiration, and going from loving candles to learning them!
