    The Cutting Edge of Essential Oils: Q&A with Clive Newland

    What if your relationship with scent goes much deeper than simply liking a beautiful perfume?In this episode of the Light & Co Podcast, Dee Light sits down with natural perfumer and aromatic architect Clive Newland, an essential oil trailblazer with nearly four decades' experience. We explore the extraordinary world of natural aromatics, essential oils, memory, frequency, natural perfume and the way scent can influence our experience of ourselves and the spaces around us.Clive explains how he works one-on-one to uncover a person's unique "aromatic vocabulary" — the deeply embedded associations between smell, memory, emotion and experience that begin developing from our earliest years.They explore why one perfume can feel completely wrong on one person and absolutely extraordinary on another, and how Clive creates signature perfumes designed to amplify the individual rather than disguise them.The conversation also moves into the fascinating distinction between natural plant aromatics and reconstructed or synthetic fragrance, including the story of the Damascena rose and what happens when the aroma of a natural material is recreated molecule by molecule.Dee and Clive also discuss their concept of "Liquid Light", the relationship between plants, light and natural aromatics, and the role that pearls, oils and aromatic blends play within their work.But this conversation isn't only about perfume.Clive shares real-world examples of using aromatics in unexpected environments — including Qantas training rooms, where a specially created aromatic spray was used to help create a more receptive learning environment, and a luxury property development where scent was used to transform the experience of people entering the showroom.They explore what happens when we stop thinking about fragrance simply as something that makes a room or a person "smell nice" and begin considering scent as part of the experience of a person, a space and the atmosphere around us.This is a conversation about natural perfumery, essential oils, memory, human experience, energetic fields, scent design and the extraordinary intelligence of the natural world.IN THIS EPISODE* **00:00 – Welcome to Light & Co: The World of Natural Aromatics*** **02:00 – Discovering Your Personal Aromatic Vocabulary*** **06:00 – How Smell Connects to Memory & the Body*** **10:00 – Your Energetic Field, Plants & “Liquid Light” *** **14:30 – Natural vs Synthetic Perfume: What’s Really Different? *** **20:00 – The Seduction of the Perfume Industry*** **24:30 – Frequency, Pendulums & Personalized Aromatics*** **28:00 – How Aromatics Transformed a Qantas Training Room*** **33:00 – The Power of Scent in Business & Property*** **36:30 – Creating Spaces Where People Can Learn, Heal & Thrive*** **38:30 – How to Work with Clive & Dee**WORK WITH CLIVE & DEEClive works with clients one-on-one to explore their individual aromatic profile and create personalized natural aromatic experiences for skin, body, home, work and personal environments.Sessions are available in person on the Sunshine Coast, online and through intimate Aromatic Salons and small group experiences.For information about working with Dee and Clive, visit www.manifestooflight.earth To enquire about booking a consult with Clive, use the contact details provided below.dee@lightandco.earthdee@manifestooflight.earth ABOUT LIGHT & CO:Light & Co explores the intersection of consciousness, natural living, beauty, energy, relationships, creativity and the extraordinary possibilities available when we become more deeply connected to ourselves and the world around us.Subscribe to the Light & Co Podcast for more conversations with people exploring life from a different perspective.
