93: The Smell Of Vacation™
from Smell Ya Later · host Smell Ya Later
What do the dawn of dial-up Internet, pool floats, and chill, early 90s party tunes have in common? They are the tenets of Vacation Inc, the sunscreen brand born of a cheeky radio station Poolsuite.fm. Among their suncare products, the brand launched with a sunscreen-scented fragrance, which turned out to be a huge hype hit, proving what we at SYL HQ already know: People love the smell of sunscreen. We have Marty Bell, one of the co-founders of both brands, to talk us through the genesis of a sunscreen scent and how vacation vibes built a brand.[What we smell like today: Snif Dead Dino, D.S. & Durga Leatherize]Find us on our website at Smellyalater.liveFollow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3Leave us a message or a query at Speakpipe.com/smellyalaterFind more info, episodes, and merch at Smellyalater.liveLeave us a voice message on the SYL Hotline at Speakpipe.com/smellyalater and we may respond on a future episode.Follow us on Instagram @smellyalater.mp3Leave a (nice) comment & (5-star) review wherever you stream, and if you feel so inclined, respond to our Spotify episode prompts please!😇As always, thank you for listening <3
