Listen "Intimacies "
Episode Synopsis
Sometimes the act of placing a perfume affords a little moment of intimacy with one’s self and celebration of memories.In talking with Sondrine Kehoe, perfumer and founder of the independent artisanal fragrance house Cygnet Perfumery, the Podcast explores intimacies - how they can enrich one’s life, how a celebration of these moments can take many forms and what it can look like when we miss the mark for these moments of connection.
