Teddy Haugen - Co-founder and perfumer at 'Teddy The Perfumer'

Over the last few months I’ve seen posts from ‘Teddy the Perfumer’ crop up on my socials and have really enjoyed his videos and his take on the fragrance industry, so I got in touch and he kindly agreed to come on the show. Teddy Haugen is (unsurprisingly!) a perfumer and is the co-founder of the eponymous independent brand based just outside San Francisco. He’s unusual in that he’s compelling and instinctive on social media - Teddy doesn’t just plug his own creations, he lifts the curtain on his creative process, demystifies the industry and is not afraid to be controversial. Clearly a perfume lover and collector, Teddy’s social posts are just as likely to be his hot take on other brands - or even style and grooming tips. Basically he’s the perfect guest for the podcast!There are currently 3 fragrances in the Teddy the Perfumer line-up, Banane Au Chocolat, Passing Stranger and Summer in Love, with more in development. It was great to talk to Teddy and he was every bit as engaging and open as I’d hoped he would be. https://www.teddytheperfumer.com/Teddy mentioned the following products during our conversation:Dae - Prickly Pear Hair Oilhttps://daehair.com/products/prickly-pear-hair-oil?_pos=2&_sid=2a5cd288b&_ss=rGummy Professional - Wax Extreme https://gummyprofessional.com/collections/hair-styling/products/gummy-styling-wax-150-ml-ultra-hold?variant=39906322251857Phillips - One Bladehttps://www.philips.co.uk/c-m-pe/oneblade-trim-edge-and-shave/oneblade-360-with-connectivityTend Skin https://tendskin.com/It Cosmetics - Bye, Bye Under Eyehttps://www.boots.com/it-cosmetics-bye-bye-under-eye-concealer-10267973Teddy The Perfumer - Banane Au Chocolathttps://www.teddytheperfumer.com/products/banane-au-chocolatYou can find Teddy on IG:https://www.instagram.com/teddy_haugen/On TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@teddy.haugenOnline at: https://www.teddytheperfumer.com/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -You can ‘tip’ me via the link below.
