Smell Ya Later

We have Noah Virgile of Amphora Parfums on this episode to talk about their breakout debut collection that we've personally fallen for, taking perfume classes and creating scents, their growing vintage Mugler flanker collection, and the joy of finding new ways to self-express through makeup, scent, eyebrow bleaching, you name it. This is such a great chat for anyone who wants to escape the cycle of perpetual performance by redefining your experiences with scent.

Before the tomato-ssance, there was Flamingo Estate. Richard Christiansen's humble Los Angeles farm is where the vegetal scent trend gained the luxury home reputation. His home, place of work, and brand has quickly made a name for itself in all things farm-to-credenza, agriculture awareness, farmer-friendly, and salt (and herb, and flower, and vine) of the earth. Christiansen chats to us about the COVID-driven collapse of his creative agency that led to his rebirth as a farmer, the importance of ritual and ceremony, and how he personally texts and calls Flamingo Estate's top customers every week (if that's you, please text him back, it's not a bot, we swear!).

Imagine only being able to make a perfume when the raw materials are in peak season. That's how April Gargiulo developed Understory, the singular perfume oil from her brand Vintner's Daughter. A year after its original launch, it's back again—round 2—with some slightly evolved aromatic tweaks. This is how a winemaker creates a perfume oil.
