88. These Are All My Fav Designer Scents Right Now! (w/ Fragrance Collector & Strategist Olya Bar)

FINALLY — a very *high requested* episode — I am sharing my top picks for designer fragrances currently on the market! And to give you an every bigger breadth of choices, I am doing so alongside my friend, fragrance collector, Olya Bar (last week’s guest). In order to give you our most up-to-date opinions, we traversed the streets of Herald Square, starting our journey first at Ulta and ending it at Macy’s.

TL;DR: We smelled hundreds of fragrances so you don’t have to, and in this episode, we share our favorites.
