1 00:00:10,705 --> 00:00:15,385 Speaker 1: You're listening to Amma Mia podcast. Mama Mia acknowledges the 2 00:00:15,425 --> 00:00:18,545 Speaker 1: traditional owners of land and waters that this podcast is 3 00:00:18,585 --> 00:00:22,065 Speaker 1: recorded on Makeup is My Therapy. 4 00:00:22,265 --> 00:00:26,385 Speaker 2: I'm obsessed and I don't even feel guilty a body. 5 00:00:29,825 --> 00:00:32,905 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to you beauty. I'm Kelly McCarran 6 00:00:32,945 --> 00:00:36,185 Speaker 1: and this is part two with the brilliant Ethan Archer 7 00:00:36,265 --> 00:00:39,665 Speaker 1: from Agency to Pop arm which he you know words, 8 00:00:39,745 --> 00:00:41,905 Speaker 1: much nicer than I do. As you would have heard 9 00:00:41,985 --> 00:00:44,665 Speaker 1: last week, we had such an epic chat that we 10 00:00:44,665 --> 00:00:46,865 Speaker 1: couldn't fit it all into one episode, Like there was 11 00:00:46,905 --> 00:00:48,505 Speaker 1: just too much good stuff. We didn't want to cut it. 12 00:00:48,905 --> 00:00:50,625 Speaker 1: So if you did miss part one, go back and 13 00:00:50,665 --> 00:00:53,225 Speaker 1: have a listen. We covered so much like seasonal switching 14 00:00:53,265 --> 00:00:57,625 Speaker 1: and fragrance layering without smelling like David Jones exploded on you. Now, Ethan. 15 00:00:57,785 --> 00:01:00,705 Speaker 1: We did end last episode talking about joops, but I 16 00:01:00,745 --> 00:01:04,225 Speaker 1: want to go completely the other direction. What is the 17 00:01:04,265 --> 00:01:07,945 Speaker 1: most expensive perfume you've ever encountered? Like? What are we 18 00:01:08,025 --> 00:01:10,505 Speaker 1: talking price wise for the real fancy stuff? 19 00:01:10,905 --> 00:01:13,505 Speaker 2: You are such beautiful skilled. 20 00:01:13,025 --> 00:01:18,465 Speaker 1: But how what is the most expensive perfume that you 21 00:01:18,545 --> 00:01:19,345 Speaker 1: own or have seen? 22 00:01:19,465 --> 00:01:22,825 Speaker 2: The most expensive that I own is twelve hundred dollars 23 00:01:22,825 --> 00:01:24,665 Speaker 2: for one hundred mil bottle, which is honestly not that 24 00:01:24,705 --> 00:01:27,705 Speaker 2: insane given some fragrances around the place. So that's a 25 00:01:27,705 --> 00:01:31,905 Speaker 2: beautiful one by this brand called Roger Roja, so Roger Dove. 26 00:01:31,905 --> 00:01:35,305 Speaker 2: He's based in London, but we actually at Libertine Perfumery. 27 00:01:35,345 --> 00:01:39,385 Speaker 2: We've also got one by him called oat Luxe as 28 00:01:39,425 --> 00:01:43,825 Speaker 2: in like oad Couture Haut. That one is four thousand, 29 00:01:43,865 --> 00:01:46,945 Speaker 2: eight hundred dollars I think, but it's that perfume as 30 00:01:46,945 --> 00:01:49,145 Speaker 2: a sense of humor. It has gold flakes floating in it, 31 00:01:49,185 --> 00:01:50,505 Speaker 2: which normally would be. 32 00:01:50,345 --> 00:01:53,545 Speaker 1: For our rich people that have money to burn. 33 00:01:53,665 --> 00:01:55,865 Speaker 2: Kind of, but the gold in it plays a funny role, 34 00:01:55,865 --> 00:01:57,825 Speaker 2: which is normally when you'd add gold to something, it's 35 00:01:57,865 --> 00:01:59,465 Speaker 2: just to make it more expensive. But with him, he 36 00:01:59,505 --> 00:02:02,185 Speaker 2: added it because by weight the gold is one of 37 00:02:02,185 --> 00:02:03,945 Speaker 2: the least expensive ingredients in the bottle. 38 00:02:04,625 --> 00:02:06,185 Speaker 1: Ah, that's quite fe. 39 00:02:06,345 --> 00:02:08,705 Speaker 2: So it's kind of, you know, just adding something to 40 00:02:08,865 --> 00:02:10,865 Speaker 2: almost reduce the cost of it a little bit, rather 41 00:02:10,905 --> 00:02:14,745 Speaker 2: than just having the things like Florentine iris for example. 42 00:02:14,785 --> 00:02:17,465 Speaker 2: It's a very expensive ingredient, can cost over one hundred 43 00:02:17,505 --> 00:02:19,825 Speaker 2: thousand dollars a quile for the oil. Wow, well over 44 00:02:19,865 --> 00:02:20,905 Speaker 2: one hundred thousand. 45 00:02:20,585 --> 00:02:22,105 Speaker 1: Dollars and that's in there as well. 46 00:02:22,185 --> 00:02:23,865 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's some of that in there. There's all sorts 47 00:02:23,865 --> 00:02:25,945 Speaker 2: of beautiful things. There's like French rows in there. It's 48 00:02:25,945 --> 00:02:26,985 Speaker 2: an incredible fragrance. 49 00:02:27,185 --> 00:02:29,185 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. I want to go into. I'm not 50 00:02:29,185 --> 00:02:30,585 Speaker 1: going to be able to afford it, obviously, but I 51 00:02:30,585 --> 00:02:30,985 Speaker 1: want to go in. 52 00:02:31,025 --> 00:02:34,385 Speaker 2: It's smellish, it's very nice. Yeah, we don't have testers 53 00:02:34,425 --> 00:02:36,265 Speaker 2: of it everywhere, and they're usually locked up in a 54 00:02:36,265 --> 00:02:37,665 Speaker 2: covered out the back somewhere. 55 00:02:37,385 --> 00:02:39,865 Speaker 1: Fair enough, because you don't want someone to go in 56 00:02:39,945 --> 00:02:40,185 Speaker 1: and just. 57 00:02:40,305 --> 00:02:42,625 Speaker 2: Douse themselcisely precisely. 58 00:02:43,065 --> 00:02:45,105 Speaker 1: I did that at an airport once actually, when I 59 00:02:45,105 --> 00:02:46,785 Speaker 1: got off a plane because I felt like there'd been 60 00:02:46,825 --> 00:02:49,585 Speaker 1: someone stinky me, So did I go and use the 61 00:02:49,585 --> 00:02:52,145 Speaker 1: tom Ford? Indeed I did, which also probably just like 62 00:02:52,265 --> 00:02:54,585 Speaker 1: layered over the stinkiness of the person. 63 00:02:54,785 --> 00:02:55,145 Speaker 2: Perhaps. 64 00:02:55,265 --> 00:02:58,305 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, is there such thing do you believe 65 00:02:58,505 --> 00:03:01,625 Speaker 1: as a scent that would suit absolutely everyone? 66 00:03:02,025 --> 00:03:04,385 Speaker 2: That's a tricky one, but I think the closest thing 67 00:03:04,465 --> 00:03:09,305 Speaker 2: to that would be the rather oddly named not a perfume. 68 00:03:09,865 --> 00:03:12,585 Speaker 2: It has a gun precisely. Yeah, so it's a single ingredient. 69 00:03:12,625 --> 00:03:16,025 Speaker 2: It's called sea to locks. It's kind of like musky amberry, 70 00:03:16,105 --> 00:03:17,785 Speaker 2: a little bit woody on some people, a little bit 71 00:03:17,785 --> 00:03:21,625 Speaker 2: floral on some people. It's literally a single ingredient. And 72 00:03:21,865 --> 00:03:26,505 Speaker 2: I've never smelled it not work on someone's skin, So yeah, 73 00:03:26,585 --> 00:03:29,105 Speaker 2: if it's ultra minimalistic, it probably works for everybody. 74 00:03:29,225 --> 00:03:32,105 Speaker 1: Okay. See, And the funny thing is, I've tried that 75 00:03:32,145 --> 00:03:33,665 Speaker 1: one and it didn't smell like anything on me. 76 00:03:33,745 --> 00:03:36,825 Speaker 2: I thought it is super subtle, So it's one where 77 00:03:37,785 --> 00:03:40,225 Speaker 2: you're almost instantly going to stop smelling it, but it 78 00:03:40,305 --> 00:03:42,945 Speaker 2: projects really well around you, so other people will smell 79 00:03:42,945 --> 00:03:44,545 Speaker 2: it on you, but in kind of a subtle way. 80 00:03:44,585 --> 00:03:47,265 Speaker 1: It's like a mood rather than people layer it as well. 81 00:03:47,425 --> 00:03:49,225 Speaker 2: You can layer it with it definitely, so it often 82 00:03:49,265 --> 00:03:52,065 Speaker 2: makes other sense last longer. That's one way you can layer, 83 00:03:52,465 --> 00:03:54,065 Speaker 2: like physically, one on top of the other. 84 00:03:54,745 --> 00:03:57,345 Speaker 1: Speaking of layering it physically, when you just did that 85 00:03:58,105 --> 00:04:00,505 Speaker 1: people playing long at home, Oh. 86 00:04:00,425 --> 00:04:01,905 Speaker 2: Sorry, yeah, this is a podcast. 87 00:04:03,385 --> 00:04:05,185 Speaker 1: So if you put it on your wrist and then 88 00:04:05,225 --> 00:04:06,945 Speaker 1: gosh and rub. 89 00:04:06,825 --> 00:04:10,065 Speaker 2: In two perfumes and you wish that is a hotly 90 00:04:10,065 --> 00:04:13,425 Speaker 2: contested one. But as I mentioned before, I'm a perfume nerd, 91 00:04:13,465 --> 00:04:15,225 Speaker 2: so I try everything out to work out whether it's 92 00:04:15,225 --> 00:04:18,665 Speaker 2: true or not. I have tried various perfumes, like rubbing 93 00:04:18,665 --> 00:04:21,105 Speaker 2: them with my wrists to see if I can warn 94 00:04:21,145 --> 00:04:23,465 Speaker 2: them up or kill the top notes or whatever. It's 95 00:04:23,505 --> 00:04:25,745 Speaker 2: really not a thing, honestly, as far as I'm convinced, 96 00:04:25,745 --> 00:04:28,025 Speaker 2: it's a myth. If you want to dub your wrists together, 97 00:04:28,105 --> 00:04:30,265 Speaker 2: rub your wrists together, all you're going to do is 98 00:04:30,305 --> 00:04:31,865 Speaker 2: halve the amount of perfume, because you know you've got 99 00:04:31,865 --> 00:04:33,865 Speaker 2: half on one wrist half on the other wrist. But 100 00:04:33,945 --> 00:04:36,465 Speaker 2: otherwise there's no real issue with it, because I think it's. 101 00:04:36,305 --> 00:04:38,705 Speaker 1: Probably something that people started doing when they were using 102 00:04:38,945 --> 00:04:40,585 Speaker 1: just a perfume oil to sort. 103 00:04:40,425 --> 00:04:43,145 Speaker 2: Of like you dub the little last thing on your wrists. 104 00:04:43,225 --> 00:04:45,465 Speaker 1: Yet it's also you're kind of unnecessary to do it 105 00:04:45,505 --> 00:04:46,385 Speaker 1: with the sprits. 106 00:04:46,545 --> 00:04:47,265 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 107 00:04:52,505 --> 00:04:54,305 Speaker 1: I want to talk about something a little bit nerdy. 108 00:04:54,785 --> 00:04:55,425 Speaker 2: Go for it. 109 00:04:55,905 --> 00:05:00,585 Speaker 1: Why don't some fragrances suit certain people? What is happening 110 00:05:00,625 --> 00:05:02,985 Speaker 1: on a chemical level when a perfume just doesn't work 111 00:05:02,985 --> 00:05:04,945 Speaker 1: on you? And I'm going to give you an example 112 00:05:05,105 --> 00:05:07,745 Speaker 1: that is specific to me. When I was at university, 113 00:05:08,345 --> 00:05:13,345 Speaker 1: I smelt this girl and she smelt so beautiful, and 114 00:05:13,385 --> 00:05:14,745 Speaker 1: I asked her what she was wearing, and she was 115 00:05:14,785 --> 00:05:17,945 Speaker 1: wearing Sarah Jessica Pucker Lovely. It's very popular for the 116 00:05:18,025 --> 00:05:21,265 Speaker 1: Uni girls back in the day. And that fragrance smelt 117 00:05:21,425 --> 00:05:26,345 Speaker 1: awful on me, like it smelt off on me. What happened? 118 00:05:26,465 --> 00:05:29,225 Speaker 1: Why do some things work on some people and not 119 00:05:29,265 --> 00:05:29,985 Speaker 1: on other people. 120 00:05:30,545 --> 00:05:35,265 Speaker 2: So there's generally two main factors in that. It's the 121 00:05:35,305 --> 00:05:37,345 Speaker 2: moisture level of your skin, how dry it is versus 122 00:05:37,345 --> 00:05:40,705 Speaker 2: how oily it is, combined with the pH of your skin, 123 00:05:40,745 --> 00:05:44,625 Speaker 2: how alkaline versus how acidic it is. So those will 124 00:05:44,905 --> 00:05:47,625 Speaker 2: have chemical effects on the fragrance that you spray on 125 00:05:47,625 --> 00:05:50,385 Speaker 2: top of there, other things like medication and whether or 126 00:05:50,385 --> 00:05:53,425 Speaker 2: not you smoke can have an impact on that diet 127 00:05:53,465 --> 00:05:55,185 Speaker 2: as Well's honestly, there's a lot of things that go 128 00:05:55,225 --> 00:05:58,065 Speaker 2: into it, but it's mostly moisture and pH of your skin. 129 00:05:58,465 --> 00:06:02,025 Speaker 2: Sometimes things will smell really metallic on certain people, or 130 00:06:02,065 --> 00:06:05,025 Speaker 2: you might just lose like citrus notes a little bit, 131 00:06:05,425 --> 00:06:07,585 Speaker 2: or they might not last as long. There's a lot 132 00:06:07,625 --> 00:06:09,265 Speaker 2: of things that can happen there, but that's why it's 133 00:06:09,265 --> 00:06:12,225 Speaker 2: always in important to actually try out sense on your. 134 00:06:12,065 --> 00:06:14,225 Speaker 1: Sin without on one of those papery things. 135 00:06:14,385 --> 00:06:16,225 Speaker 2: Exactly if you try it on the paper blott a 136 00:06:16,345 --> 00:06:18,865 Speaker 2: and then buy it without spring it on skin, I mean, 137 00:06:18,865 --> 00:06:20,825 Speaker 2: it's probably fine, but it is going to smell at 138 00:06:20,905 --> 00:06:22,185 Speaker 2: least a little different on your skin. 139 00:06:22,985 --> 00:06:27,025 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, thank you. What's the weirdest note that you've 140 00:06:27,065 --> 00:06:31,585 Speaker 1: ever come across in a perfect because I have the 141 00:06:31,625 --> 00:06:34,225 Speaker 1: first time someone said that something had the smell of leather, 142 00:06:34,385 --> 00:06:36,625 Speaker 1: like it had leather in it, I was like, Oh, 143 00:06:36,785 --> 00:06:40,585 Speaker 1: I thought it was the sexiest thing ever. Leather, tobacco, 144 00:06:41,265 --> 00:06:44,385 Speaker 1: Oh my god, so hot, so gorgeous. 145 00:06:45,145 --> 00:06:47,945 Speaker 2: Definitely so with something like leather, they're not actually extracting 146 00:06:48,025 --> 00:06:51,305 Speaker 2: the scent from leather. It's just recreated using various other things. 147 00:06:51,545 --> 00:06:54,305 Speaker 2: And in fact, leather when you smell leather, that's not 148 00:06:54,305 --> 00:06:56,145 Speaker 2: actually the smell of the leather. That's the smell of 149 00:06:56,225 --> 00:06:58,585 Speaker 2: various other things I've been added during the tanning process, 150 00:06:58,665 --> 00:07:00,505 Speaker 2: because leather doesn't smell very good by itself. 151 00:07:00,545 --> 00:07:02,625 Speaker 1: No, it wouldn't. It would smell like a dead cow. 152 00:07:02,905 --> 00:07:04,705 Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much like leather. Tannery is are meant to 153 00:07:04,705 --> 00:07:06,665 Speaker 2: smell horrible, but that's why they add perfume to leather, 154 00:07:07,225 --> 00:07:10,065 Speaker 2: so weirdest notes I've ever come across. Some you get 155 00:07:10,065 --> 00:07:13,865 Speaker 2: really stupid ones, like gold or diamonds that are literally inert. 156 00:07:13,905 --> 00:07:16,305 Speaker 2: They don't have a smell or pearls or whatever like that. 157 00:07:16,265 --> 00:07:18,425 Speaker 1: Doesn't make any marketing thing though, right, They just like 158 00:07:18,745 --> 00:07:19,785 Speaker 1: it's got pearls in. 159 00:07:19,705 --> 00:07:22,785 Speaker 2: It, or yeah, like andger our friend, Yeah, he's got 160 00:07:22,785 --> 00:07:24,585 Speaker 2: the gold in there. The gold doesn't have a smell, 161 00:07:24,585 --> 00:07:26,745 Speaker 2: but it's there as like a fun little addition. But 162 00:07:26,785 --> 00:07:28,745 Speaker 2: he wouldn't list gold as one of the notes because, 163 00:07:28,785 --> 00:07:30,345 Speaker 2: like he knows as well as anyone, there is no 164 00:07:30,465 --> 00:07:34,865 Speaker 2: smell to gold. But occasionally you'll see something like blood 165 00:07:34,945 --> 00:07:38,545 Speaker 2: in a perfume or wet concrete. Again not actual blood 166 00:07:38,585 --> 00:07:40,745 Speaker 2: in the perfume and not actual wet concrete. 167 00:07:40,385 --> 00:07:43,465 Speaker 1: But other things blood in a perfume. I actually can't 168 00:07:43,585 --> 00:07:47,865 Speaker 1: get the wet concrete thing because it doesn't smell bad. 169 00:07:47,865 --> 00:07:49,745 Speaker 1: It's still not something I would want to smell like. 170 00:07:49,825 --> 00:07:52,825 Speaker 1: But I get like the rain on wet grass or 171 00:07:53,065 --> 00:07:56,665 Speaker 1: that's yeah, of course it's wet if it's raining, but yeah, yuck. 172 00:07:56,785 --> 00:08:00,625 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, or something like ink is actually surprisingly popular 173 00:08:00,665 --> 00:08:02,545 Speaker 2: that's used in a lot of things, but it's kind 174 00:08:02,545 --> 00:08:03,705 Speaker 2: of hard to kick in a perfume. 175 00:08:03,745 --> 00:08:04,105 Speaker 1: Petrol. 176 00:08:04,225 --> 00:08:07,185 Speaker 2: Yeah, you hear about petrol and perfumes occasionally, again not 177 00:08:07,345 --> 00:08:10,785 Speaker 2: physically in the perfume. Not really. My thing. Ink's a 178 00:08:10,825 --> 00:08:13,305 Speaker 2: funny one because there's so many types of ink and 179 00:08:13,345 --> 00:08:15,185 Speaker 2: they never specify which one it is, so it's hard 180 00:08:15,185 --> 00:08:22,385 Speaker 2: to pick the actual ink. Note when you're smelling a scent, okay, inside, 181 00:08:22,465 --> 00:08:25,465 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's something, but none that come to mind, 182 00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:26,785 Speaker 2: and certainly not in our collection. 183 00:08:26,945 --> 00:08:29,065 Speaker 1: Bad enough, when I use vitamin scene it smells like 184 00:08:29,265 --> 00:08:30,385 Speaker 1: old bacon on my face. 185 00:08:31,665 --> 00:08:33,225 Speaker 2: No, you wouldn't like that perfume. 186 00:08:33,385 --> 00:08:37,905 Speaker 1: No, what's a strange like note that you actually love? 187 00:08:38,345 --> 00:08:43,825 Speaker 2: Oh? Good question? The smell of rain or storms, like 188 00:08:43,905 --> 00:08:48,945 Speaker 2: that kind of dusty, earthy rain smell, like when when 189 00:08:48,945 --> 00:08:50,185 Speaker 2: you're out somewhere really dry. 190 00:08:50,425 --> 00:08:51,945 Speaker 1: Everyone loves that smell. 191 00:08:52,065 --> 00:08:53,825 Speaker 2: I mean, it's weird that you can bottle it, though. 192 00:08:53,985 --> 00:08:56,025 Speaker 2: Like there's something there's this thing called mitti, a tar 193 00:08:56,105 --> 00:08:58,625 Speaker 2: which has been produced in India for centuries out of 194 00:08:58,745 --> 00:09:01,065 Speaker 2: actual clay. They dig up clay and extract the scent 195 00:09:01,105 --> 00:09:03,905 Speaker 2: from the way. Or there's something called geosmine which humans 196 00:09:03,905 --> 00:09:06,985 Speaker 2: can smell. It's something like three parts per trillion it's 197 00:09:07,025 --> 00:09:09,625 Speaker 2: like a survival instinct that somehow like grew in our brain, 198 00:09:09,785 --> 00:09:12,985 Speaker 2: so we can smell when rain is approaching. But yeah, 199 00:09:13,025 --> 00:09:14,785 Speaker 2: I guess it's not such a weird smell. But I 200 00:09:14,825 --> 00:09:17,065 Speaker 2: just love that the smell of rain can be bottled 201 00:09:17,105 --> 00:09:18,665 Speaker 2: and put into a perfec Yeah. 202 00:09:18,385 --> 00:09:22,825 Speaker 1: Because it is such a beautiful, unique fragrance. 203 00:09:23,025 --> 00:09:23,745 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. 204 00:09:29,865 --> 00:09:33,825 Speaker 1: How many cents can the average human nose actually distinguish? 205 00:09:34,505 --> 00:09:38,945 Speaker 2: So interesting question. I've got two totally opposite sounding answers 206 00:09:38,985 --> 00:09:42,865 Speaker 2: to that. So perfumers typically they can name between five 207 00:09:42,945 --> 00:09:45,745 Speaker 2: hundred and a thousand different ingredients. They pick up a perfume, 208 00:09:45,785 --> 00:09:47,985 Speaker 2: they smell the perfume and they can name, you know, 209 00:09:48,065 --> 00:09:50,785 Speaker 2: like the ten or twenty main ingredients in that and 210 00:09:50,825 --> 00:09:53,825 Speaker 2: sort of recreate it more or less that way. But 211 00:09:54,545 --> 00:09:56,665 Speaker 2: that's just ones that they can name. So the human nose, 212 00:09:56,745 --> 00:09:59,305 Speaker 2: because we've got four hundred cent receptors in the nose, 213 00:09:59,305 --> 00:10:01,465 Speaker 2: there's various combinations of sense available. 214 00:10:01,505 --> 00:10:03,225 Speaker 1: I've had a nose job, so mine probably doesn't work 215 00:10:03,265 --> 00:10:04,225 Speaker 1: the same as a once do. 216 00:10:04,185 --> 00:10:05,025 Speaker 2: You who knows? 217 00:10:05,105 --> 00:10:06,945 Speaker 1: Who knows my nerves and receptors? 218 00:10:07,185 --> 00:10:08,465 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not a surge and I don't know 219 00:10:08,505 --> 00:10:11,065 Speaker 2: how that side of things works. But I know that 220 00:10:11,065 --> 00:10:13,865 Speaker 2: the humanos can detect about a trillion different sense couldn't 221 00:10:13,945 --> 00:10:16,145 Speaker 2: name all of them, but like numbering from one to 222 00:10:16,185 --> 00:10:18,385 Speaker 2: a trillion, I could write down a number in there 223 00:10:18,425 --> 00:10:20,185 Speaker 2: and you could tell me what the number is. It 224 00:10:20,225 --> 00:10:22,465 Speaker 2: doesn't mean that you could, you know, come up with 225 00:10:22,505 --> 00:10:24,945 Speaker 2: the name of it from memory, had a trillion different 226 00:10:24,985 --> 00:10:27,385 Speaker 2: sense Basically to the human nos, I plain it. 227 00:10:27,425 --> 00:10:30,065 Speaker 1: All, and I'm not just telling you random fun facts. 228 00:10:30,105 --> 00:10:33,385 Speaker 1: But I have like this skill where I because I 229 00:10:33,425 --> 00:10:35,385 Speaker 1: love and playing it ball so much, I look at 230 00:10:35,385 --> 00:10:38,705 Speaker 1: a person and I'll be like, you're a ga or 231 00:10:39,545 --> 00:10:44,585 Speaker 1: just because of their vibe and personality. I'm assuming that 232 00:10:44,665 --> 00:10:47,065 Speaker 1: you can do that with perfumes. You can assign a 233 00:10:47,105 --> 00:10:48,145 Speaker 1: perfume to a person. 234 00:10:48,505 --> 00:10:49,905 Speaker 2: I think I need to get to know a person 235 00:10:49,945 --> 00:10:51,745 Speaker 2: a little bit, So for me, I need to know 236 00:10:51,865 --> 00:10:55,105 Speaker 2: what someone's ideal life is or what they do in 237 00:10:55,105 --> 00:10:57,065 Speaker 2: their spare time. Because you want a scent that actually 238 00:10:57,105 --> 00:10:59,945 Speaker 2: reflects who you are outside of the moment when you're 239 00:10:59,945 --> 00:11:03,585 Speaker 2: meeting somebody. So if you want like a leathery petroley 240 00:11:03,705 --> 00:11:07,145 Speaker 2: kind of a smell, like you own horses and you 241 00:11:07,225 --> 00:11:10,385 Speaker 2: repair your own car, great that's going to as a perfume. 242 00:11:10,425 --> 00:11:13,105 Speaker 2: But if you don't have lifestyle like that at all, 243 00:11:13,105 --> 00:11:14,905 Speaker 2: it's going to clash. It's just not going to smell 244 00:11:14,985 --> 00:11:17,225 Speaker 2: quite right. If you smell like a florist but you're 245 00:11:17,225 --> 00:11:20,185 Speaker 2: never around flowers, it might just smell kind of odd. 246 00:11:20,385 --> 00:11:22,665 Speaker 2: Everyone wears floral sense, but like I'm talking about that 247 00:11:22,705 --> 00:11:27,105 Speaker 2: green sap, kind of a proper florist smell. Yeah, sometimes 248 00:11:27,145 --> 00:11:29,425 Speaker 2: I can get a vibe based on what a person's wearing. 249 00:11:29,545 --> 00:11:31,385 Speaker 1: Okay, I want you to try me. I'll tell you 250 00:11:31,385 --> 00:11:35,665 Speaker 1: a few more. Okay, So I'm a mum of a 251 00:11:35,705 --> 00:11:38,985 Speaker 1: three year old. Yeah, I work in beauty, so I 252 00:11:39,025 --> 00:11:42,065 Speaker 1: get to try a lot of things. I love my netball. 253 00:11:42,585 --> 00:11:46,265 Speaker 1: I like to smell clean, yeah most of the time, 254 00:11:46,305 --> 00:11:50,585 Speaker 1: but then something a little bit extra some of the time. 255 00:11:51,345 --> 00:11:56,065 Speaker 1: Love your langu lang and love like jasmine and white flowers. 256 00:11:56,505 --> 00:12:00,785 Speaker 2: Okay, I reckon you would probably enjoy this one by 257 00:12:01,345 --> 00:12:05,385 Speaker 2: the brand Clive Christian. It's called it's a very long name, 258 00:12:05,585 --> 00:12:09,745 Speaker 2: jump up and kiss me ecstatic. So it's the strong 259 00:12:09,985 --> 00:12:13,825 Speaker 2: tubero's perfume i've ever come across. It's not sweet in 260 00:12:13,905 --> 00:12:16,225 Speaker 2: any way, but it's a bold scent and if you 261 00:12:16,265 --> 00:12:18,825 Speaker 2: only spray one spray of a fragrance, I think that 262 00:12:18,825 --> 00:12:20,745 Speaker 2: one will work really well because you only need one 263 00:12:20,785 --> 00:12:21,705 Speaker 2: spray of something like that. 264 00:12:21,785 --> 00:12:24,465 Speaker 1: I'm going to go and smell it really good and 265 00:12:24,505 --> 00:12:27,785 Speaker 1: then report back if you've nailed me in a fragrance right, 266 00:12:27,945 --> 00:12:31,305 Speaker 1: Because people that know fragrance you just like get it. 267 00:12:31,385 --> 00:12:33,865 Speaker 1: I think you probably better at it than you even 268 00:12:33,865 --> 00:12:34,785 Speaker 1: give yourself credit for. 269 00:12:35,065 --> 00:12:36,585 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe you can. 270 00:12:36,465 --> 00:12:39,985 Speaker 1: Start a little side hustle.
