Fragrant Legacies & Scent-Matched ‘Eras’

Fragrant Legacies & Scent-Matched ‘Eras’

By Nicola Bonn

A bumper episode this week, starting with a deep dive into the new Estée Lauder Legacy x Frederic Malle collection of brilliantly re-imagined classics, there’s also a discussion of a limited-edition Serges Lutens that delights Suzy and disturbs Nicola, and an incredible MEMO fragrance that transports you to a gloriously unique landscape in Turkey.

And here’s something different – we focus on the fascinating question sent in by a listener who’s lucky enough to be going to the @taylorswift ERAS tour and wants to know how we’d scent it. So, we went one step further and have matched a fragrance for every major album, reflecting the mood shift and growth process in each perfume choice... Do you agree, or would you have chosen differently? How would YOU scent the tour? Or perhaps there’s a musician / film / book / TV Show or some other art form you’d like us to ‘scent match’? Let us know!

In This Week’s Show:
