Ep. 25: Saskia Wilson-Brown's Journey Through Scent in Five Songs
How do you turn a song into a scent? And what does music teach us about scent-making and its history? We take a deep dive into these questions with Saskia Wilson-Brown, whose mission is to disrupt, decolonize, and democratize perfumery. Saskia, who is Bay Area-bred, is the founder and executive director of the Institute for Art and Olfaction in Los Angeles, a nonprofit art studio that makes perfumery accessible to all. Listen as she takes us on an aromatic journey through five songs that relate to fragrance-making and its global origins, modern scent practies, and the complex world of naturals versus synthetics.
Saskia's Selections:
1.) Omar Souleyman- "Warni Warni"
2.) Charles Trenet - "La Mer"
3.) MC Solaar - "Nouveau Western"
4.) Otis Redding - "Cigarettes and Coffee"
5.) Mort Garson - “Symphony for a Spider Plant"/Mother Earth's Plantasia
