An essay about perfume by Alice Hattrick.

Alice speaks to writer Alyssa Harad about self-narrative and perfume as an archive of the world's matter, artist Calvin Sangster shares his collection of aroma chemicals, poet Elisa Gabbert talks obsession and perfume criticism, and we hear a new audio work by artist Erica Scourti, titled Perfume Selfie.

In this episode, Naomi Pearce thinks about bodies, how they trap us and how we try and escape them.

With contributions from Horrible GIF, Juliet Jacques and Hanne Lippard.
