Hey look it's a new year and we're finally far enough along in January to release our first episode. Now that we're here, let's talk about our latest pickups, what we've been wearing, and where we see things going with trends and collecting in 2026. We even manage to find a little time to get doomerist and a bit blasphemous. Oh, and a very strong round of The Game.

Hard charging towards the end of the year, we dive into our most worn perfumes of 2025 and then steer right into the macabre as we discuss our death bed fragrances. Like the memories that will pass before our eyes, we travel that journey through scents and perfumes.

In our first installment of Fragraphilia & Friends, we decide to bring in some high level sophistication, grace, and the ability the properly pronounce French words. We proudly welcome the wonderful Tracy Wan to the podcast. Throughout the episode we discuss Tracy's backstory, her upbringing, perfume-y fruits and stinky food. We also bond over her affinity for gauzy lens cinema and our shared love of Hitchcock films. Oh, and of course, she joins us for a pretty strong round of The Game. Watch out wantlist!

We've been so excited to discuss the newest release from Paraphrase Perfumes, Fruit Thieves, which was totally worth all the customs delays. Thanks to Josh who kindly sent it to us as a gift. We also dip our toes in the water of the ever-present topic of dupes and how they play into the manosphere and Reddit sales.

Are we doing damage to our noses with some of these powerful aroma-chemicals? We don't know for sure, but maybe, and we discuss it a bit in this episode. We also talk about a few milk perfumes, the perfumes we're looking forward to wearing once the heat breaks, and some ways to layer Oudh Infini. And for those keeping score, you can bet on Jane mentioning L'Astre. Oh, and a pretty solid round of The Game. That want list just keeps growing...

After a short break from our normal recording routine, we are back and ready to ramble about the perfumes we just can't wear in this god forsaken heat, but some that we do, and others we look forward to wearing in the fall and winter. Also, Jane reveals the big winner from her perfume search from the last episode and let's just say there were some significant changes in heart. All that and a heavy hitter edition of The Game featuring big notes of vanilla, fig, and honey.

This is an episode about a girl who has been on a quest to find her next full bottle purchase. This is also an episode about the paralysis of choice. Luckily, we have a little time, some microphones, and a few people out there willing to hear her story. Also, The Game this week doesn't help shorten the list, that's for sure, but I think we make it out with her selections (kinda).

We speak a bit more about brands and perfumes in general rather than specific releases this episode but we wanted to discuss design, bottles, and what piques our interest when we are shopping new houses and fragrances. Preferences that go beyond just the note list. We also discuss dabbers and our best approach at maximizing their wear in response to a listener message. Spoiler Alert - We're no help! For The Game, I'm not sure the room has ever smelled better as we sample some classics and a couple of surprises. Seriously, it still smells great and I'm writing this hours after recording.

In this episode we discuss a few new to us perfumes from the houses of Aedes de Venustas and Reservation, the latter being a new brand that keeps popping up on our social feeds, and we are very impressed by both. A couple even rocketed up our respective want lists. Also, Jeff is looking for some magnolia perfumes and Jane discusses a new favorite from Trudon composed by Lyn Harris back in 2017. During The Game, we are challenged by an old world recipe, note lists that scare us a bit, and one that's probably more suited for a night out than an afternoon at the playground with your toddler. Tea - Victoria Grey by Fortnum and MasonMovies - Night Tide (1961), Shane (1953), Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland (1989) This Episode's Friends of the Pod:Caitlyn - https://www.instagram.com/caitlynandcharlee/ - https://www.youtube.com/@dearmilkfedPerfume Journal - https://www.youtube.com/@perfumejournalS Elizabeth - https://www.instagram.com/ghoulnextdoor & https://unquietthings.comJoseph Colbourne - https://www.instagram.com/jjcolbourne/Danielle - https://www.instagram.com/perfumeglow_danielle/ (00:00) - - Intro, Tea, and Magnolia Scents (04:40) - - Reservation by Yann Vasnier (10:54) - - Aedes de Venustas (21:02) - - A Couple of Samples & Name Drops (24:13) - - Scents of the Week (33:31) - - The Game Scents Mentioned in this Episode:Willow and Gold Leaves by Régime des Fleurs / Eau De Magnolia by Frederic Malle / Feu de Rose, Chambre Secrète, and Jasmine Haze by Reservation / Bois D'Encens by Armani / Rose 31 by Le Labo / Babycat by Yves Saint Laurent / Vanille Antique by Byredo / Mortel by Trudon / Citizen X by Ex Nihilo / Delina by Parfums de Marly / Signature, Amnesia Rose, Iris Nazarena, Cafe Tabac, Encens Japonais, and Sueno Latino by Aedes de Venustas / Oud Satin Mood by Maison Francis Kurkdjian / Falling Trees by Régime des Fleurs / L'orpheline by Serge Lutens / Deux by Trudon / Mississippi Medicine by DS & Durga / Flaming Creature by Marissa Zappas / L'Été 67 by St Rose / L'Ame Perdue by Le Galion / Grand Larceny by St Rose / Crème Bouquet by Stila / French Poetry by St Rose / Leather Petals by Régime des Fleurs / Greatest Cologne of All Time, Golfjazz, Rum Bay Rum, and Grey Blazer by DS & Durga / Jersey by Chanel / Un Bois by Obvious / Les Nuits by Astier de Villatte / Incense Rori by Amouage / L'Astre by Le Galion / Ganymede by Marc-Antoine Barrois / Monstera and OroNardo by Xinú / Rouge Chaotique, Bibliotheque, Oud Immortel by ByredoThe GameArtaban by Astier de Villatte / Shah'ryar by Rania J / VetiVerde by Xinú / Soie Malaquais by Dries Van Noten / Great Lord by Vilhelm Parfumerie / Hysterica by Gritti  Please feel free to email us at [email protected] - Send us questions, comments, or recommendations.

We are so excited to feature one of our most favorite houses in our third edition of Fragra-Files, Régime des Fleurs. After launching in 2014, the line has expanded and evolved year over year into one of the most consistently high level luxury perfume brands on the market today. With watery roses, dewy green white florals, and sharp earthy woods, Régime des Fleurs and Alia Raza bring something unique to niche perfumery that is often classic, sometimes mysterious, and always effortlessly chic. Listen as we go through the current lineup, discuss a couple of limited Fait Main releases, and lament a missed opportunity to buy one that was discontinued long ago. Finally, we close the episode with our top 5 picks and we'd love to know a few of yours. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] - Send us questions, comments, or recommendations.
