What began as a monthly sniff-in on the Outspoken Beauty Podcast soon became so popular in its own right (and with so many listeners sending in questions and asking for more) that On the Scent just had to go weekly - this time on its own perfumed platform! Encompassing everything from icons and all-time classics to what’s new on the high street to the more ‘niche’ indie brands; Beauty broadcaster and columnist Nicola Bonn and award-winning fragrance journalist and expert Suzy Nightingale give personalised perfume prescriptions, describe fragrances in such an intoxicating way you can almost smell them and help navigate the thousands of scents out there to find the truly incredible ones. Also expect interviews with well-known figures, delving into their favourite scents of all time and opportunities to get to know some of the most exciting perfumers in the world. Whether you’ve a collection of 500+ or are just starting on your scent journey, olfactory obsessives Nicola & Suzy are on a mission to find…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-10T06:17:10.387557+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-scent-4488139"},"episode":{"title":"Season 8, Episode 3: Posh bananas, burning roses & perfume blending!","slug":"season-8-episode-3-posh-bananas-burning-roses-perfume-blending","published_at":"2026-07-02T21:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-scent-4488139/season-8-episode-3-posh-bananas-burning-roses-perfume-blending","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-scent-4488139","url":"https://on-the-scent.captivate.fm","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/25bfa820-e068-46c0-8ea1-a95b55fbe438.mp3?aw_0_1st.showid=78e34bab-e279-4e78-92cd-c9317aa071e3&aw_0_1st.episodeid=25bfa820-e068-46c0-8ea1-a95b55fbe438","summary":"Talk about varied - we go from a ‘posh banana’ Brazilian carnival in a bottle Nicola experienced at a vibrantly fun perfume pop-up in Liberty, to an extraordinary, burning, bloodied rose Suzy’s entranced by (don’t worry - it’s not as scary as it sounds!) We’re also featuring two incredibly inspirational women on this week’s show - one who’s created her own fragrance brand to reflect a life lived in scent and adventure, and another who’s bringing the playfulness back into perfumery by allowing you (and your friends) to attend a blending workshop via Zoom - to create your own fragrance with her stunning and easy-to-use accords. A whole group of the #fragfam (Suzy, Nicola, Jo, Alice du Parcq, Amanda Carr, Thomas & Hayden attended a Zoom, and we were HUGELY impressed, plus love the scents we blended!) Amidst all of that there’s talk of a naughty Toy Boy who’s back in town, and Suzy finds two exquisite (and very affordable) iris-forward fragrances for a listener.

They say: ‘Evoking the tropical vibrance of Brazil in olfactive form, Yes, Nós Temos Banana! eau de parfum from Granado is an invigorating addition to any fragrance collection. Anchored by a classic, woody base of sandalwood and cedar, this fragrance combines vibrant notes of banana and peach blossom with the romantic delicacy of fig and iris, while highlighting banana leaf as the protagonist of the crea…","meta_description":"Talk about varied - we go from a ‘posh banana’ Brazilian carnival in a bottle Nicola experienced at a vibrantly fun perfume pop-up in Liberty, to an extra…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2809,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/on-the-scent-4488139/episodes/season-8-episode-3-posh-bananas-burning-roses-perfume-blending/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/on-the-scent-4488139/season-8-episode-3-posh-bananas-burning-roses-perfume-blending.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
