Are these the best affordable fragrances Suzy & Nicola have EVER smelled…? Plus: finding a replacement for a much-missed signature scent

Looking for some truly outstanding and very affordable fragrances? Have Suzy & Nicola got an episode for you! This week, as challenged by the podcast’s Instagram followers, they went on a scent safari sniffing their way around the new fragrances in one of the U.K’s most beloved high street shops. The results? Well, they were rather awe-struck with how wonderful they were, to be honest…

Suzy is totally in love with a new perfume shop she popped into for a (free!) half-hour hand and massage the other day; and there are also some suggestions for a listener desperately missing their favourite (now discontinued) fragrance.

Discover the fragrant duo’s favourite affordable new perfumes, and exactly what was suggested for the much-missed scent (but make haste, as many of their suggestions are already selling out online!)

In this episode: Marks & Spencer, Norfolk Natural Living, Chopard, Kayali – but don’t hang around, click the link to listen, below, and hear all about these must-have pocket-friendly perfumes…

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.
