    Perfume Room

    Hosted by perfumehead & comedian Emma Vernon, Perfume Room is your #1 safe space to obsess over all things scent.

    CRITICS CALL IT ‘hilarious,’ ‘engaging,’ ‘educational,’ ‘just earnest enough,’ & ‘really bad for my wallet.’

    Wherever you are on your perfume journey, you are welcome in the Perfume Room.

    204. BRIAN PARK [COMEDIAN] ~ If He Can Pronounce Loewe, He Smells Like: Mar 10, 2026
    Show notes

    Comedian, writer, and Accidental PerfumeTok King™ Brian Park is in the Perfume Room today! You likely know him from his viral TikTok series where he satirizes 'taste bros' who use consumerism in lieu of developing a personality.

    Vids of his like 'POV: you're on a date with a guy who has Aesop soap in his bathroom' have garnered millions of views and have platformed him to an entirely unexpected corner of the Internet - PerfumeTok.

    Today we chat about the persona, who inspired it, what he's actually wearing off screen, and the woes and joys that come with the territory of being deeply entrenched in an Internet niche.

    201. BRUME ORPIN ~ The New [incredible] Perfume Brand with a 50-Ingredient Palette! Feb 17, 2026
    Show notes

    Launched in 2024, BRUME ORPIN is a niche fragrance brand putting sustainability at the forefront of EVERYTHING they create. Every aspect of the perfume, from the outermost packaging down the juice has been painstakingly designed to be biodegradable—to the point that the BRUME ORPIN has restricted its palette to just 50 materials. Yes, only 50.

    It's a perfect example of of creativity born from boundary. Today, Founder Tiphaine Cogez-Cousseau shares that story.

    FRAGS MENTIONED:

    BRUME ORPIN: Odenui Extrait, Odenui, Oratoa, Dara, Theor, Leau; Balmain Ambre Gris, Guerlain Jardins de Bagatelle; BRUME ORPIN Odosman, Villa Odosman, Oratoa

    198. SY TRUONG [SYLHOUETTE] ~ The Man With the Paracresol Tattoo. Jan 13, 2026
    Show notes

    In 2018, Sy Truong began studying (and teaching himself) perfumery. Six years later, he's the recipient of an Art & Olfaction Award, the founder and perfumer behind the internationally-celebrated brand Sylhouette Parfums, the perfumer of record for TOOUCH perfumes, and is shaping the emerging landscape of Vietnamese niche perfumery.

    Today, we chat about the perfume book that changed his entire life, his quest to embody his art, his self-image and how it shapes his style and aesthetic, and Sy shares the driving force behind all he does (in my words, not his) that we could all do a bit more of in 2026: ~LET UR HATERS BE UR MOTIVATORS!~

    197. BRIAC FROCRAIN [MARLOU] ~ How To Smell Human. Jan 06, 2026
    Show notes

    MARLOU perfumes smell like LIFE—aromas of existence shared across human, fauna, and flora. They’re Dirty. They’re Clean. They’re tender. They’re coarse. And it’s this very proximity to reality that draws its critics and fans alike.

    Founder Briac Frocrain welcomes all reactions and through his perfumes, invites and challenges us to reflect—what do we [humans] smell like? Is that dirty? Is ‘dirty’ bad? What is the function of perfume? What do we consider beautiful? And WHY. WHY. WHY.

    SOTD: El Morocco Highball for Lucius B.
