101. What Really Happened to Atelier?! + Niche [Fragrance] Hidden Gems You Need To Know! (w/ Scent Stylist + YouTuber El-Aton Georges)

Fragrance Stylist El-Aton Georges is in the Perfume Room! If there's anyone who knows niche, it's El-Aton, and I trust his recommendations/taste implicitly. Currently, he works at Bergdorf's, where he is the Brand Manager for The Maker, and previously, he was the Manager of Atelier's flagship store in Nolita (RIP). You *know* we get that the juicy inside scoop on what really happened to the brand, and when/if we can expect a comeback (!!); we also discuss 'stinky cheese scents,' the Mugler scent that changed it all, how El-Aton finds his clients their perfect scent(s), and El-Aton shares with us the **HIDDEN GEMS** — the scents that NEED to be on our radars — at Bergdorf's!
