On today’s episode, I am speaking with Carina Chaz, founder of DedCool. She shares how she built a cult-favorite fragrance brand from scratch—starting with DIY formulations. In this episode, she dives into launching during a pandemic, staying profitable without big funding, and how scrappy beginnings shaped her business approach. Carina also opens up about expanding fragrance into lifestyle products, building genuine brand loyalty, and why community is at the heart of DedCool’s success. Enjoy!
