We’ve been going through our stash of scent samples recently - so many of us have them, don’t we? Vials and travel sizes rolling about in drawers and on desks (or, as many of our listeners have testified, stored neatly and documented in spreadsheets. We wish we were this organised!) Fragrance samples really are a brilliant way of trying something new, a bit daring or not what you’d normally go for first - and it adds an element of excitement to play ‘tester roulette’, as we have here! 
We’re also discussing some of the fragrances we’ve been wearing and trying lately, AND answering a listener’s questions about finding what’s creating the ‘doll’s head’ note in a new fragrance she’s been testing, plus finding her an emboldening, long-lasting workplace perfume.
