106. Creating Postmodern Vintage Perfume (w/ ERIS PARFUMS Founder Barbara Herman)

ERIS PARFUMS Founder Barbara Herman is in the Perfume Room today! Barbara is the author of "Scent and Subversion: Decoding a Century of Provocative Perfume" as well as the blogger behind the very popular 2010s vintage perfume blog, "Yesterday’s Perfume." With such a vast knowledge of vintage fragrances, Barbara founded ERIS to celebrate subversion and unconventional beauty in fragrance, and to a bring a missing boldness to modern niche perfumery akin to what she had encountered in all of her vintage fragrance adventures. Today we chat about everything real animalics versus synthetic ones, prominent scent trends of each decade of the 20th century, and how what’s old is new, and of course, we discuss the perfection that is ERIS PARFUMS, including the very exciting guava-licious newness that is Delta of Venus.  FRAGS MENTIONED: Le Labo Cedrat 37, ERIS: Delta of Venus, Green Spell; Prescriptives Calyx, Jean Patou Colony, ERIS Ma Bête, Aramis, Paloma Picasso, Revlon Charlie, Emanuel Ungaro Diva, Nina Ricci L’Air du Temps, Giorgio Beverly Hills Giorgio, Guerlain Shalimar, Guerlain Jicky, Robert Piguet, Etat Libre D’Orange Secretions Magnifiques, ERIS: Mx., Scorpio Rising, Belle du Jour, Ma Bête, Night Flower, Mx., Mxxx., Green Spell, Delta of Venus; Geoffrey Beene Grey Flannel   FOLLOW: @erisparfums || erisparfums.com 10% OFF Luckyscent: code '10pr' ($40+) LET'S FIND YOUR NEXT SCENT: https://shopmy.us/emmavernon/consults
