We're back with a new season! Kicking things off we thought we'd dip our toes with a new year womble all about what we've been sniffing and buying since the end of season five, as well as all the usual off topic nonsense. Happy new season! You can contact us via email at [email protected] or via Instagram:   Dan: fragrance_weirdo James: houdini_sotd   Ben: talking_scents   Fliss: fliss_sniffs_stuff

This week we're back with everybody's favourite, Fliss and her picks of 2025. It's probably the most fabulous of the bunch, naturally, but do we all love everything? What podcast do you think this is?!

This week we're back with the third of our 2025 roundup episodes, this time inspecting Dan's choices, all of which, were naturally the best thing any of us had ever smelt. Or perhaps not, but don't mention that to Dan.

We carry on with our picks of 2025, this week sniffing some of Bens most worn fragrances, including something which smells like a dried up zombie corpse (apparently).

This week we're having a look at a few perfumes that James has enjoyed or found interesting from this year, all of which go down very well indeed. We're also doing the normal bit of nonsense chat, including having a look at the proposed EU ban on ethanol, debating the morals of creating perfumes based on serial killers, and the smellmaxxxxing disaster that may (or may not) have led to a whole new chain of high street shops.

This week we sit down to discuss the big trends we noticed in perfumery for the year, as well as what we think might be coming over teh horizon for next year. Naturally it's all as silly as you might expect, and there's nothing of any seriousness at all. We also have a brief chat about essential parfums, the eternal question of pour femme and pour homme and dans perfume erection. You can contact us via email at [email protected] or via Instagram:   Dan: fragrance_weirdo James: houdini_sotd   Ben: talking_scents   Fliss: fliss_sniffs_stuff    During the show we may mention perfumes that were sent to us for review.

Hallelujah! It's turning autumn, the skies are grey, the air is cold... So it's time for an autumn list right? WRONG! Contrary as always, we talk about our favourite rainy day frags, and also our favourite sunny day ones too a little bit becuase why stick to the brief?

This week we have a lovely little chat about what we've been wearing, as well as a little on Dan's Soma event, before turning to guest Jess, the unfortunate partner of Ben who just came back from Grasse and the perfume museum there, who tells us all about that.

This week on Les Oderants we're talking all about backup bottles. Do you do it, why? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! Or are you simply a well adjusted individual all set to make the apocalypse smell fabulous? As you can quite imagine, no answers were discovered in the making of this episode.

This week we're taking a look at naming conventions in perfumery, from some of the absolute worst to some that are actually interesting and some that are even poetic. Mostly they're all just heinous though.

This week we’re one Ode down and tearing into the history of fifty years of perfume without the arbiter. I know, unthinkable. We’re playing a fun game, picking two fragrances from each decade from the 1980s to the 2020s, and doing our best to utilise our meerkat-like attention spans to keep it original.  You can contact us via email at [email protected] or via Instagram:   Dan: fragrance_weirdo James: houdini_sotd   Ben: talking_scents   Fliss: fliss_sniffs_stuff    During the show we may mention perfumes that were sent to us for review.

This week we're digging down into what does or does not equate to success in perfumery and just how much luck is involved with a commercial success and how exactly that is achieved. Of course, we have no idea.

This week we're looking into the house of Louis Vuitton, a bit of a frag fan favourite, and doing our best to give them the Les Odes treatment. James also assaults us all with a brisk full 21, whilst Fliss Dan and Ben prey for death to come swiftly.
