What is Sillage and Sorcery?

Welcome to Sillage and Sorcery, a podcast that explores the enchanting world of perfume through the eyes of two witches who intertwine their craft with the art of perfumery.
In each episode, we center our discussion around a specific ingredient. Bee, the perfumer behind Venus Invictus, delves into the history, discovery, and chemistry of that ingredient. Meanwhile, Melissa, the creative nose behind Sif Sniffs , highlights a well-known perfume that incorporates it, discussing its significance and impact in popular culture. We also have mini-episodes where we interview indie perfumers!
