In this episode, Frauke discusses what it means to be a smeller, why we should all be one, and what steps we can take to becoming one. She explains that our reliance on sight and sound in today's digital world has led to a sensory imbalance, causing emotional health issues. Frauke encourages listeners to prioritize their sense of smell and become 'smellers' to connect with the world on a deeper level. She provides practical steps to shift our identity towards being a smeller, such as focusing on smelling during daily activities, replacing sight-centric activities with smelling activities, and adding smelling breaks to our day.

In this episode, Frauke sits down with perfumer Candace Winrow Weekly, who shares her thoughts on artisan perfumery and perfumery as a whole. Candace explains how her background as a dessert chef and floral designer has informed her work as a perfumer. She shares why she only works with raw materials, and not pre-made mixtures, so that she can express her own unique creative style. Candace reveals what "creation" and "beautiful things" mean to her, and how she took the leap into making perfumes. She gives her thoughts on what artisan perfumery can add to the conversation and why they deserve a seat at the table. Candace also gives her view of the genderization of perfumes, and why we should move away from those note lists. She also shares her creative process, who she creates for, and how she wants people to feel when they wear her perfumes. Whether you create perfumes or simply enjoy wearing them, this conversation will leave with scent provoking new perspectives.
