On The Scent

Fragrant Journeys: Your Life Moments, Scented


Listen Later

Our latest #listenerprescriptions special episode is here! We've been overwhelmed with incredibly inventive, creative questions from our listeners that we simply couldn't wait to dive into. [See our Stories for direct links!]

First up is Emsy, seeking a fragrance for a transformative period in life while dealing with chronic pain and preparing for an exciting theatre production. For under £100, we suggested @ruthmastenbroekperfume Dagian with its refreshing lime, mint and orange blossom notes, @experimentalperfumeclub Bergamot Incense which brings complexity to this radiant citrus, and @joloves Pomelo Oud.

Then Cemile, writing a masters thesis on Circe, needed a scent embodying this witch goddess's duality of savagery and elegance. We prescribed @paul_schutze Tears of Eros, a narcotic green incense rich with resins, @mapoftheheart Purple Heart V.5 with its dark heart of salty liquorice and purple rose, and @montblanc Patchouli Ink which perfectly melds ink, paper and passion.


For Stephen, a tattoo artist working in close proximity with clients, we recommended @akrofragrances Ink with its notes of black ink, tar and vetiver, Gri Gri Tara Mantra (the eau de parfum for tattooed skin!), @vyraoworld Witchy Woo, and @beaufortlondon Coeur de Noir with its dominating ink accords.


Finally, Grace is expecting a baby in May and wanted a soothing yet distinctive scent for labour. We suggested @e11evenfragrance Perfume Oil with its floral geranium and rose notes, @moltonbrown Reviving Rosemary, and @ilapothecary's aroma rollers.


Tune in to hear our full fragrant recommendations and the stories behind them!
