We’ve finally got our noses on a brilliant collection of affordable fragrances (including the most realistic rhubarb we’ve ever smelled), an intoxicating scent inspired by the red light district of Paris (ooh la la!), and an intriguing murder mystery game to play with a perfume set. Plus - a fragrance featuring an incredible *100-year old Mysore sandalwood*!

We’ve also got a list of suggestions for a listener seeking to capture the smell of forest walks and mountain hikes, and some ideas for a lovely friend to gift her BFF (whose signature scent was the much missed Stella by Stella McCartney).

All this, and chats ranging from Nicola’s personal perfume selector, meetings with squirrels, the salacious history of the colour red, and mince pie crumble (including a disagreement over what’s best to serve WITH a crumble. Suzy says custard, Nicola says… well. You have to hear it to believe it!)

We discuss…
