Great interview! Informative! Now I know I have skin that eats scent. LOL. Ambers and fruity scents work fairly well on me, but incense smells harsh and white florals usually smell soapy on me.
Yes, there are so many variables - not only your skin type, but how you perceive smells, either because of how your nose works, or emotional associations we have with them.
Great interview. You are looking stunning as usual. When you get a chance, do try and smell Amouage Homage and Homage Tribute. I haven't been fragrance searching lately, but these smell great : )
Hi cmxxxx - I have Homage in my collection, I'm pleased to say, and wear it all the time! Tried Tribute for the first time the other week - it's fine, but not for me. A floral tobacco that starts masculine and ends feminine.
Katie, you're the best...nice interview! Now I understand why my hubby loves onions and hates cheese! BTW, I had to order a sample of Lab 18 because your review of it was highly entertaining. You really are a zoo kinda gal. The perfume was FUN-ky! I couldn't pull it off (I'm just a diehard tuberose lover) but I really enjoyed the adventure of it all! Thanks for all of your wit and wisdom!
Been experimenting w/ Do Son, two from L'Artisan, Tocca, and Fracas (that's w/ a capital F, too..she's one loud lady!) Will have to try FM Carnal Flower and the Lauder private collection next. The
tuberose gardenia sounds right up my flower alley (as opposed to your "furry alley"). This summer I wore Kenzo's eau de fleur Magnolia during the day, but jacked it up after dark wearing Manoumalia, both post K.P. reviews. Your hard work really pays...for me! ;^)
Wow.....it always amazes me how people in academia feel completely comfortable speaking about things they obviously know nothing about and have no experience with. Particularly interesting since this is exactly the type of expert who should be doing research on pheromones in humans but isn't.
While this armchair quarterback is basically dismissing them. There are thousands and thousands of people who use commercially available pheromone products that will happily tell you that they work.
My fiance can't smell, the nerves in his nose were damaged by an allergy test when he was 5 years old. He still enjoys food, but it is awful to think about how much in life he misses because he can't smell.
I was just thinking what an awesome job he had and started fantasizing what it would be like for me until he said he had to sniff defrosted feminine hygiene products that have previously been worn. Ugh power to you man.
That was awesome because when I was 12-years old I nicked named my stinky little sister "onion pits." She had to start wearing deodorant at age 6 or 7 cause she gets RIPE. I am sending OP a link to this right now!
Ha-ha, me too! There's a certain plastic wrapping smell I can't get enough of, and it also comes out of a clothes steamer I use. I think it reminds me of opening Xmas presents when I was a kid.
I told my boyfriend... you gotta watch this interesting video. He was really into it until the end... ha ha! Guys, sometimes when it comes to "women" stuff, they cringe. Great video. More! More!
Loved this! Just like I love your videos, they way you present them in that tongue and cheek manner is fantastic. Highly entertaining and interesting. The lightheartedness of it was a great vacation for my mind that bogged down with college finals.
that was sooo funny at the end i even cringed at the thought lol....can u try essence by narsico rodrdgeuz i love it (i smelt a sample in a mag) buy my hubby says it smells like hospitals ,it does sort of have a sterile wipe smell to it but i would be grateful if you could tear it apart for me b4 i buy. xx
this was a fascinating video almost like i would have never thought to speak to a sensory psychologist but since watching this am amazed at what he said!! You never think ur everyday sensors mean so much till you really think about it. Great video and i agree with a previous comment i missed you...until next time :)
Great interview! You're really quite good at it! Thanks for a very informative, and entertaining visit with a interesting and charming guest. Again, great job, I feel a little smarter!
Avery is so interesting, isn't he? And it book is filled with friend-bombarding facts. Just about every page I read, I was telling my husband, "listen to this one!". I think I ended up telling him the whole book, lol.
Wow! Loved the interview, Katie! All my scent questions answered. Being the 'scent whore' that I am, I've always wondered if my sense of smell was somehow stonger or more sensitive than others. When I was pregnant I felt as if I could smell someone's BO from a mile away! And, afterwards that strong and sensative sense of smell has stuck with me. That was really interesting. Thanks, Katie!!
Thanks, MTB! It's a fact that a woman's sense of smell becomes more acute during pregnancy, in order to warn you off spoiled food & drink that could be harmful to the fetus. And Dr Gilbert was telling me that generally, woman have a stronger sense of smell than men.
Love this!!!!
