Rosin your bows and tune your harps because this week the Nose Candy ladies are talking about perfumes that smell how music sounds. Your favorite synesthetes took a short break from party rocking to discuss barefoot 70s surfer frags, Southern Comfort scents and barnyard banjo perfumes. What to smell like one of Aesop's fables? What about a freak folk guitar solo? LSD perfume anyone? All that PLUS the ladies host another white smellephant, Maddie makes an epic NIN mix and Chloe's life is changed by Joanna Newsom live in concert (twice!).

Pull out your thesaurus and moisten your quill because this week Maddie and Chloe are joined by former New York Times perfume critic Chandler Burr to discuss the language of scent. The author sat down with the Nose Candy gals to talk about (how to talk about) everything from synthetic molecules to Joan Didion to Abstract Expressionism to Yankee Candles. Looking for a perfume that smells like a David Hockney painting? What about a Laura Ashley duvet cover? Razorblade rose petals? Grab your scented notebooks fragheads because this is a lesson in perfume rhetoric with one of the best to ever do it!

Want more from the writer of the New Yorker's definitive piece on scent Chandler Burr? Go run and buy "The Perfect Scent," "The Emperor of Scent" (about Luca Turin), and his novel "You or Someone Like You." Also!

This week the Nose Candy gals are giving you a sniff behind the scented curtain to see what happens when three divas stop being polite and start getting real. This is the Nose Candy E! True Hollywood Story and who better to join Maddie and Chloe for this heart wrenching docu-drama than podcaster, writer, cultural historian and all around glamour puss Tierney Finster?! The three ladies sat down to discuss the perfumes that scented the motion picture soundtracks of their lives which means bisexual smells, hoochie perfumes, and performance artist frags. Want to smell like Samantha's beach house in the Sex and the City movie? What about Jennifer Aniston's shabby chic slipcover? Is your sig scent more haunted doll house or Bruce Webber centerfold? Whether you're ordering Pink Dot on your parent's credit card, playing doctor at all girls summer camp, or huffing vanilla bug spray, remember: there are true sides to every story.

Our little homesickies are back from their business travel and only want one thing: Mommy! Somebody call Ancestry.com because these two genealogists have been sniffing around the family tree and they want answers, namely: What exactly makes a perfume smell like mommy's milkers? Can you replicate the scent of grandma's soap dish? Is a Millennial MILF a Tommy Girl all grown up? All that plus the best brunch city in North America, dreidel perfume, good soap gone bad, and the most boring film ever made. Get ready to suckle this week frag heads because these two fertile myrtles have tea to spill and milk to spare.
