In search of the next great aromachemical (think of predecessors like ISO E Super, Cashmeran, Galaxolide, etc...), Patina Co-Founders Sean Raspet and Laura Sisson spend their days in the lab testing and developing new molecules. What does that mean? What is scent design and how does it work? And—in the same way every color has its own immutable RGB code, can we empiricize smells? Laura and Sean hope to do just that.

Logos, slogans, jingle--they all matter, but Beauty Exec-turned-Founder Caroline Fabrigas knows that the next (and most impactful) frontier in branding is scent. Through her company Scent Marketing Inc., she's developed everything from iconic hotel scents (The 1 Hotel, Baccarat Hotel, and Auberge Resorts), to retail spaces, med spas, amusement park rides—even 20 blocks of 5th Avenue. Where money can be spent, scent can be smelled. Today we chat about scent as a means of branding, how Caroline got into this business, and how she reimagines her client's brands through the lens of smell. scentmarketinginc.com | ⁠scentfluence.com⁠ | @scentmarketinginc SOTD: Chambre 52 Contre Ta Peau (get 10% off LuckyScent sample with code: perfumeroom) BOOK A SCENT STYLING SESSION W ME: linktr.ee/emmavern FRAGS MENTIONED: Chambre 52 Contre Ta Peau, Penhaligon's Fortuitous Finley, Comme des Garcons Odeur du Theatre du Chatelet Act I, Headspace Sauge, La Perla Once Upon a Garden, Celine Saint-Germain-Des-Prés, Dior Bois D'Argent, Abercrombie Fierce, Hollister Socal, Wayfair Perfect Weekend, Dior Eau Sauvage, Estée Lauder: Youth Dew, Cinnabar; Revlon Charlie, The One Hotel signature scent, Guerlain Shalimar, Chopard Casmir

Fragrance and fashion legend Narciso Rodriguez joins me in the Perfume Room this week!!!! (REQUIRED LISTENING.) Two-time recipient of the CFDA Womenswear Designer of the Year as well as the Lifetime Achievement Award AND recipient of 2003 TFA Best New Fragrance Award (for For Her) (among many others), Narciso has received the highest honors for his contributions in both industries. He is able to capture important moments in time in ways that transcend it. Some of his most seminal creations include Carolyn Bessette Kennedy's wedding gown, Michelle Obama's 2008 Election Night dress, and in fragrance, For Her, which is largely credited with modernizing musk for the 21st century. Today we chat about everything from how he cultivated his own signature (and what that signature is), to how his fashion and fragrance sensibilities are one in the same, his special friendship with CBK and what the media has gotten right and wrong,some never-before-told behind-the-scenes stories surrounding the creation of Narciso Rodriguez fragrances, and of course, what lies ahead.

Husband-and-wife duo Isaac Lekach and Lillian Shalom have spent the past few years developing fragrances for other brands. With El Morocco Perfumery , it's finally their turn. In an attempt to recreate the magic of cafe society (and the legendary club for which the brand is named), the pair approached this project like archivists, collecting every handkerchief, matchbook, and photo they could get their hands on. What began as a mission to be historically accurate became a reimagining of what fragrance bottle and packaging design could be.

In just one year since launch, Param Sara , a new niche Indian perfume brand on the scene, has already won numerous prestigious accolades. And it all began when Founder Ankita Gill noticed a common theme in perfumery: non-Indian and non-Asian brands were telling Indian and Asian stories. Determined to reclaim and retell these stories through her own memories and experiences, Ankita pivoted careers, signed up for perfumery school, and just a few years later leads an award-winning perfume brand with fragrances created by some of the world's best (and she calls it, 'culturally-fluid') perfumers.
