An Aromatic Life

In this episode, Frauke sits down with perfumer Candace Winrow Weekly, who shares her thoughts on artisan perfumery and perfumery as a whole. Candace explains how her background as a dessert chef and floral designer has informed her work as a perfumer. She shares why she only works with raw materials, and not pre-made mixtures, so that she can express her own unique creative style. Candace reveals what "creation" and "beautiful things" mean to her, and how she took the leap into making perfumes. She gives her thoughts on what artisan perfumery can add to the conversation and why they deserve a seat at the table. Candace also gives her view of the genderization of perfumes, and why we should move away from those note lists. She also shares her creative process, who she creates for, and how she wants people to feel when they wear her perfumes. Whether you create perfumes or simply enjoy wearing them, this conversation will leave with scent provoking new perspectives.
