Tynan Sinks and Sable Yong — friends, beauty editors, award-winning fragrance writers (some of us), and scent fiends — are giving the world the podcast no one asked for.
Smell Ya Later explores every imaginable angle at which we interact with the aromas and odors in our lives, the scents that have seared themselves into our memory, and scents that inform the way we envision our future. That includes everything from fine fragrances to candles to dish soap.

On The Brink Of Glossier They/Them
A hangtime discussing the BBC documentary about child labor in the Egyptian jasmine supply chain, scented lip balms are everywhere, normalizing not having takes on everything (in beauty coverage ), Binaurale's kooky fragrances, a poppers-themed (?)

Not A Podcast (feat. Romano Ricci of Juliette Has A Gun)
Juliette Has A Gun's founder Romano Ricci may be more of a Mercutio in the Shakespeare-coded and metaphorical world of this episode. With Not A Perfume, Anyway..., Mmmm..., Ode To Dullness, and others, Juliette Has A Gun has undone haute parfumerie's serious formalities and proven that levity can be luxury as well. We speak with Ricci about the risk of launching an unserious fragrance brand in the height of mid-aughts fragrance culture, his roots in fragrance and fashion legacy, and how fragrance can be invisible armor.

The Tortured Perfume Department
Spring is canonically a season of bare knees, vitamin D-derived dopamine, crushes, and for many, the expiration of their winter and fall cuffs. An uncuffing season, if you will. In this yap-centric episode, we cover some of our foolproof 'get back out there' scents, and a whole lot of other scent-adjacent behaviors that put the sprung in spring.
