Ready for a madcap sniffathon of new launches, Harrods exclusives & a spicy scent to set your senses tingling…?
This week’s On The Scent Podcast is a truly madcap sniffathon of TWENTY TWO perfumes, encompassing [*takes a deep breath*] wild seascapes, fragrant ghosts and a notorious rake; a thrillingly spicy summer scent to set your senses tingling; a fruity treat based on a perfumer’s favourite breakfast; a splendiferous peacock strutting its scented stuff; a stunning sueded rose; perfumes pulled straight from the vegetable patch; Harrods exclusives to swoon over; a seriously affordable new niche house; a mesmerising myrrh, and a sneak peek into Alice du Parcq’s forthcoming book…
AND if all that wasn’t enough, Suzy and Nicola are also answering a #listenerprescription for a jasmine fragrance to remind her of a dance while wearing jasmine garlands.
Obvs we haven’t the space to list every single scent mentioned here, but luckily for you each fragrance IS listed in the notes of the podcast page [click ‘GO TO SHOW’ below] and they’re all linked to the brands’ websites so you can find out more, if you fancy.
Read along as you listen, and get ready to fall in love…

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.
