Alexandra Roos co-founded the unique fragrance brand Roos & Roos with her mother, Chantal Roos. Chantal is an industry legend who is responsible for the creation of iconic, blockbuster scents such as YSL's Opium, Issey Miyake's L'Eau d'Issey and Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Mâle. Alexandra is a trained musician, songwriter and composer and alongside Chantal, she has crafted a really special brand that explores the relationships between scent and music, mythology and more. In this episode we talk all about Alexandra's early exposure to fragrance and how she approaches creation, both in the realms of music and fragrance, in similar, yet different ways.
