    3 Shocking Ways We Smell Sexiness | Perfume Myth Busting

    3 Shocking Ways We Smell Sexiness | Perfume Myth Busting

    Warning: This may ruin the fragrance youtube for you. You might never want to watch another โ€œPanty Dropperโ€, โ€œMen go crazyโ€ perfume video with the same child-like excitement or wonder.
    Perfume Nation, we are in for a wild ride! In this episode, we decode attraction, and discover shocking, and rather uncomfortable data-backed facts about our most watched perfume videos of all time: Panty Dropping Fragrances, Most complimented Perfumes, Sexy, and Alluring Scents.
    Good News: It turns out it is true, Sexiness is in the smell (too). Science is proving it bit by bit. What we smell strongly affects our feelings, yet it is not the yumminess of the scent that gets us going.
    Bad News: All we were told by marketing or influencers about complimentary fragrances are honest lies, blind leading the blind.
    We do smell sexiness, yet pheromone scents are a scam.
    We do universally like gourmand perfumes, yet perfume is an obstacle to attracting a suitable partner.
    And maybe some of you knew it on the back of your mind? If so, share your observations!

    #PerfumeNation: The dangerous game of a perfumer: perils and glory of aiming high

    #PerfumeNation: The dangerous game of a perfumer: perils and glory of aiming high

    Who is a perfumer? It's not as simple a question as we might think. The role of a perfumer, along with their rights, visibility, autonomy, and authorship, has been evolving over centuries, with little progress in protecting the most prolific, creative, and influential contributors from IP slavery, forced anonymity, and many other issues.

    Social media, in this case, emerged as a hero (for once!), and with the help of the fragrance community and beauty industry-affiliated enthusiasts, we began to uncover the people behind our favorite scents. These individuals have shaped history and cultural legacy, even influencing dating norms to an extent. Who would want to hear on the third date, "Oh, my father/mother wears this scent"? We have an abnormally long memory for scents, yet the people who shape our olfactory history enjoy few rights over what they contributed to society. Is this finally about to change?

    #PerfumeNation: Esxence '24, Pricing war, Sustainability bs, Greedy4 China, hidden LatAm power

    In this enlightening episode of "Perfume Nation," we dive into the heart of the fragrance world at the renowned international fragrance expo, Esxence, held annually in early March in Milan, Italy. It is known for gathering distinguished guests and offering insightful lectures on the latest trends in perfume sales and production.
    While the world seems fixated on the booming Chinese market, we ponder the overlooked potential of Latin America in the fragrance sector. What makes one market more appealing than the other, and are we missing out on untapped opportunities?
    Moreover, we tackle the intriguing trend of virtue signaling within the industry. As more companies jump on the bandwagon of sustainability, we question the authenticity of this surge. With a proliferation of lectures and discussions on environmental friendliness at the expo, we ask: is this just another trend, or are there genuine intentions behind the green facade?
    Don't miss this episode for a candid look at the world of perfumery, where we unravel the glitz, dissect market dynamics, and challenge the status quo of sustainability in the fragrance industry.
