16: Every Kiss Begins With Krigler

The word "iconic" gets thrown around a lot. So does the word "literally." Well, prepare for an encore when we tell you that Krigler is literally one of the most iconic fragrance houses in the WORLD. Their exquisite juices have spritzed the necks of royalty (American and otherwise), celebrity, Oscar winners, literary icons, and also the iconically wealthy. Hepburn, Kelly, Dietrich, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Kennedy — Krigler truly is the scent of ICONS. Ben Krigler, the great great (great?) grandson of Albert Krigler, who founded the brand in 1904, came on the pod to talk with us about the unique magique of Krigler fragrances and how his humble family business went from hotel boutiques to a beloved brand for scent enthusiasts wherever they are in the world. (Kind of like Succession but with less familial extortion and more perfume.)
