160. [RENAUD SALMON] If Not Amouage, Then Who?

Amouage Chief Creative Officer Renaud Salmon joins me in the Perfume Room this week. When he took the post in 2019, his mission was clear: make Amouage the best, most iconic fragrance brand in the world. (You know, easy.) We discuss how he’s endeavored to do just that; the rich fragrance culture in Oman; what daily life there looks like for him and his family; and the memories, people, and inspirations that fuel his creative vision. Plus, we dive into the brand new Essences collection and get an exclusive preview of some upcoming 2025 launches. And trust me, they are GOOD.
