Thomas Dunckley - Fragrance Expert 'Making Scents Make Sense'

It was a real treat to talk to Thomas Dunckley this week on the podcast. He was one of the first accounts I followed when I got into fragrance and has an incredible ability to make his content accessible, relatable and fun. Thomas is a hugely experienced and knowledgeable writer, blogger, speaker and podcaster. He used to write using the name ‘the candy perfume boy’ (changing the gender of the title of a Madonna song!) but now goes under the name ‘making scents make sense.’ This seems to neatly encapsulate his ethos - democratising fragrance and bringing it to life.Thomas’ new podcast will start in April 2025, also called ‘making scents make sense’ and it sounds like he has some great guests and topics lined up. He mentioned the following products during our conversation:Pixie - Glow Tonichttps://pixibeauty.co.uk/products/glow-tonic-250mlPixie - Rose Ceramide Creamhttps://pixibeauty.co.uk/products/rose-ceramide-creamChanel - Hydra Beauty Micro-Serum.https://www.chanel.com/gb/skincare/p/143180/hydra-beauty-micro-serum-intense-replenishing-hydration/Bedhead for Men - Shampoo/Conditionerhttps://escentual.com/products/tigi-bed-head-for-men-clean-up-shampoo-and-conditioner-tween-duo-2-x-750ml?variant=49266697896260Roger & Gallet - Fleur de Figuierhttps://escentual.com/products/roger-gallet-fleur-de-figuier-wellbeing-shower-gel?variant=49265921294660Bon Parfumeur - 403 Myrrh Shadowhttps://www.bonparfumeur.com/en-gb/products/403-timut-pepper-myrrh-benzoinYou can find Thomas on IG here:https://www.instagram.com/makingscentsmakesenseOnline at: https://www.thomasdunckley.com/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -You can ‘tip’ me via the link below.
