How dare you ghouls try to steal from the brilliant Jack Mason of The Perfume Nationalist?! He is a pioneer of fragrance podcasting and this way too similar show name is beyond creepy.
Apple Podcasts1MWCNYCUnited States2 years ago - Thought provoking and educational
I came across the podcast randomly after seemingly exhausting other perfume content and I am so impressed!

I enjoyed her blind tests and her tips for developing my nose. The content is well researched, thorough and entertaining. Highly recommend!
