Smell Ya Later

THE LAST FRONTIER in the customization of beauty…is fragrance. Many have tried, many have failed. And then there came Hawthorne, a brand created to match you with not one, but two custom scents: one for work and one for play. But HOW? In this episode, we grill Phillip Wong and Brian Jeong, co-founders of the brand, about how Hawthorne was created, the algorithmic sorcery involved in matching their customer with two different but complementary scents, and what the future of customization in beauty looks like. [Fragrances mentioned: Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium, Giorgio Armani My Way.] Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater and we may respond on a future episode.

This episode has everything: Satanism, cinnamon-flavored colonialism, misogynistic food groups, and the Hamburglar. We take it upon ourselves to do a two-person roundtable of all things pumpkin spice and its reign over autumn in the North American hemisphere. In this episode, we give you a semi-accurate history of pumpkin spice lore, we talk about what we love about the ubiquitous fall scent, and then shit-talk everything about it that we don't, while calling out all the products that took it upon themselves to pumpkin spice themselves for the season. [Scents mentioned: Ex Nihilo Celeste Cuir, Lush I'm Home]Find more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.live Leave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater and we may respond on a future episode.

It's our episode with the brand that your hosts grew up with, formed our nascent scent-ualities around, and forever have a soft spot in our gummy little hearts for... Bath & Body Works. It was the mall oasis where for less than $20 you could form your identity within clouds of Warm Vanilla Sugar, Sun-Ripened Raspberry, and Juniper Breeze. Chrissy Montera, Associate VP of Marketing at Bath & Body Works joins us on the pod to talk about her impressive tenure at the brand, building the legacies of scents that we've come to associate with our adolescence, and how Bath & Body Works endures to this day as the brand that grew up with you.

We've got the D.S. in D.S. & Durga and the brand's perfumer, David Seth Moltz, to Zoom with us about how he and his partner Kavi Moltz went from a musician/waiter and architect (respectively) to create one of the coolest and most unique modern American perfume brands around. David breaks down our favorite scents from the line, scrambles our little bunny brains with some olfactory knowledge, and explains how starting their fragrance brand isn't all that dissimilar from starting a band.

Welcome to Smell Ya Later's inaugural episode. Your hosts, Tynan and Sable talk about their fragrant backgrounds, why writing about and describing fragrance is so complicated, why they started this smelly podcast, their current TOP THREE SCENTS, and some other stuff, too. It's the first episode, had to get all this housekeeping out of the way first, you know?

Many-something years ago in a megamall complex far, far away... is where some of the most poignant scents of our formative years were found, sprayed, and burrowing into the recesses of our brains to forever timestamp those specific scents for probably ever. We're talking about our most nostalgic scents, name-checking the body splashes we built our identities around, and Tynan goes on a tangential rant about his distaste for deodorant (with some legit deodorant reccs, so it's not without its merit).

This is the Smell Ya Later perfume primer. In our careers as beauty writers and editors, we've sniffed a fair amount of fragrances and learned a fair amount of behind-the-scenes fragrance industry stuff, in general. Are we experts? God, no. But do we know more about perfume than the average mouthbreather? Yes. Here is a brain-dump of all that information so you will never again confidently say "sill-age" when it is indeed "si-yahhzh."
