Episode 1 - Deadly Creatures and Dames
The world of femme fatales and murder: Uniqueness, heroes and Colloquialisms
In the debut episode of Paperback Perfumes, Clare and her guest, Elissa, a musician, fashion designer, and self-proclaimed lover of all things vintage, reflect on their recent olfactory expedition to a nearby perfumery, also known as a 'Sniffari'. Engaging in a lively conversation, they delve into the realm of signature scents while reminiscing about vintage fragrances and sharing anecdotes about working behind perfume counters. The discussion meanders to noir films, murder mystery novels, and the unique experience of seeing books come to life through film and television adaptations.
