On this week’s ‘On The Scent’ podcast: Suzy & Nicola re-visit an interview with Sali Hughes, in an emotionally-revealing scent journey
This week, ‘On The Scent’ Jasmine Award-winning podcasters Suzy Nightingale and Nicola Bonn are re-visiting a classic episode in which they interviewed renowned beauty and fragrance journalist, author and broadcastaster Sali Hughes.
While Suzy and Nicola are on a short pod-pause (as Nicola’s been on holiday), they thought it would be the perfect opportunity to revisit one of the all-time classic On The Scent Podcast episodes with Sali Hughes. Well known for her brilliant ‘Perfume Diaries’ series on Instagram, and for being a fellow fragrance fanatic, Sali revealed the first ever fragrance she fell in love with and then took us all on a journey through her ‘fragrant toolbox’ – those signature scents she uses for specific mood-boosts and scene-setting, and with which she can never, now, be without.
Including… Chanel N°5, Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, Éditions de Parfums Fréderic Malle L’Eau d’Hiver, and many others in her gorgeously curated wardrobe. We’ve a hunch you’re going to want to try them all…

Are you a regular listener? We know we’re biased, but any perfume-lover who isn’t tuning in on a regular basis is missing out. On The Scent podcast was part of the inspiration for this website (and our magazine): a podcast destination for anyone fascinated by fragrance, or keen to learn more. A place where perfume snobbery is stripped away, and fragrance is accessible to all.
What began as a monthly sniff-in on the Outspoken Beauty podcast soon became so popular in its own right (and with so many listeners sending in questions and asking for more), that On The Scent just had to go weekly – this time on its own perfumed platform! Today, the podcast regularly attracts over 40,000 listeners per show.
Encompassing everything from icons and all-time classics to what’s new on the high street via the more niche indie brands, beauty broadcaster and columnist Nicola Bonn and award-winning fragrance journalist and expert Suzy Nightingale give personalised perfume prescriptions, describing fragrances in such an intoxicating way you can almsot smell them and help navigate the thousands of scents out there to find the truly incredible ones. Also, expect interviews with well-known figures, delving into their favourite scents of all time, and opportunities to get to know some of the most exciting perfumers in the world.
