We suggest you settle down with a cuppa for this episode because it’s a MEGA-SPRITZATHON of scents, encompassing Suzy’s trip to Florence for the fragrance industry trade fair and international showcase, @pittifragranze. We take a look at some of Suzy’s favourite new / upcoming niche brands here (and after she’s properly gone through her notes and 500,000 photos) will sniff through more newness next time. Also, we’re answering listener’s questions with #perfumeprescriptions - from divorce to difficult noses. Which of these do YOU like the sound of…?

This week we are VERY excitedly sniffing the one-off bespoke fragrances that @bedeauxx perfumer Amanda Beadle so thoughtfully created for @outspokenbeauty’s kids, Poppy & Louis. (Seriously, though, how lucky are they?!) There’s also a much-anticipated review of the NEW @fredericmalle fragrance by Jean-Claude Ellena, a sneaky sniff of the soon to be launched @parfumsdemarly, our time at THE rooftop perfume party of the summer (and an INCIDENT WITH A PINE NUT & SELFRIDGES BAG which reduced Nicola & Suzy to a giggling fit). All this plus what we’ve been wearing, and your always fascinating questions answered with #perfumeprescriptions - including a listener who’s trying to track down a mysteriously minty/eucalyptus scent that lingers in certain parts of London (no, not THAT. Or that). We discuss:@jomalonelondon Lime Basil & Mandarin layered with Wood Sage & Sea Salt@fredericmalle Heaven Can Wait@parfumsdemarly Althaïr@granadobrazil and their TWO new London stores, in Regent Street & Ham Yard Village, showcasing BOSSA created by @cecilezarokianparfumeurListener Perfume Prescriptions:@jomalonelondon Velvet Rose & Oud@sanajardin Incense Water@maisonfranciskurkdjian Oud Satin Mood@joloves Eucalyptus and Cedar [email protected] Mint & Tonic@loccitane_uk_ire Mint Verbena@perfumerh Rhubarb@millerharris Hydra Figue@roosandroos Globulus@fredericmalle Synthetic Jungle@rojadove 1819@fischersund No. 23@lancomeofficial Rose Peonia@byredo Rose of No Man’s Land

With @outspokenbeautynicola now back from her holidays, she and @fragrantmaven are reunified in this first episode of a brand new season. THREE! Can you believe it?! Amidst frantic catch-ups, there’s a frenzy of excitement over new fragrances, and a debate about dupes (continued from Suzy’s guest appearance on Radio 4s You & Yours programme).Plus, there’s Perfume Prescriptions for listeners looking for a really long-lasting scent, a fragrance to aid meditation, and a mother desperately trying to prise their kid away from their best (expensive!) perfume!We discuss…@whind Néroli Bronzé@jomalonelondon English Pear & Sweet Pea@lordsfragrancehouse Big Sur candle@avon_uk Far Away Beyond the Moon@tomfordbeauty Neroli Portofino@nuxe_uk Aftersun@thameenfragrance Fanfare @chanel.beauty Mademoiselle [email protected] Le Lion@ilapothecary Speak Your Truth@ilapothecary Beat the Blues@ruthmastenbroekperfume Dagian@thameenfragrance Fanfare@paul_schutze Tears of Eros@marcantoinebarrois Ganymede@marcantoinebarrois Encelade @e11venfrageance (now at @spacenk)@nancymeilandparfums GAIA attar@veroniquegabai Aroma Soul@experimentalperfumeclub Tonka SesameAroma Labs Cold Pressed Sesame Oil £5.90 for 100ml (available on Amazon) perhaps to try using as a body oil & layering other fragrances if they like?

We were so excited to partner with @avon_uk to create this immersive episode, in which we get to try the BRAND NEW Avon fragrance - Far Away Beyond the Moon.We’ll be travelling via our noses and diving deep into the creation of this fragrance by talking to Avon’s Head of Perfumery, Victor Costa, listening to the fragrant dreamscapes Suzy & Nicola were whisked to while wearing it and hearing some of the Outspoken Beauty Panellists’ impressions of wearing this scent.But wait, did you know Avon’s history dates back to 1886? A future-forward company even then, they began when a door-to-door book salesman named David H. McConnell began giving free fragrance samples, but he quickly ditched the books when women went crazy for the scents and demanded more.Employing a female sales force, and empowering them to create their own destiny (many earning an independent wage for the first time), Avon’s passion for beautiful yet affordable perfumes has never wavered!Just some of the top name noses who’ve created fragrances for Avon include… Maurice Roucel, Olivier Cresp, Calice Becker, Honorine Blanc, Pierre Negrin, Antoine Lee, Fanny Bal & Alberto Morillas.Built around the mysterious Belle de Nuit flower (which only blooms at night), Far Away Beyond the Moon is Parfum strength - all ripe cherries rippled through with sumptuously radiant musks - overlapping shades of midnight, a velvety sky sprinkled with stars, and silvery moonlight reflected in calmly lapping waves. It certainly took us far away, to some very unexpected places… and in this episode we invite you to join us in the immersive, dream-like scentscapes it beckoned us to explore…And we know price shouldn’t matter, but this is SO affordable: just £16 for 50ml Parfum / Samples 50p!We couldn’t resist visiting some of the other fragrances in the Beyond family, too: Far Away Beyond, which laps your skin (but better) in milky sandalwood, a caress of cashmere musk and snuggle-me-closer comfort; and the O.G, the original Far Away, which is a holiday in a bottle of sun warmed skin, blissed-out exotic breeziness and golden beaches stretching for miles… heaven! The question is: where will @avon_uk Avon Far Away Beyond the Moon take YOU? We can’t wait for you to smell it and tell us!Meanwhile, make yourself comfortable, sit back and relax, and listen while you allow your fragrant daydreams to begin…
