207. DAISY BOW ~ 'Gourmands,' 'Authenticity,' & Other Western Constructs.
Tuesday, 31 March, 2026
Daisy Bow thinks the *G-Word* is, well, complicated. A Part-Time Assistant Professor at The New School, FIT, and Marymount Manhattan whose work centers on French food and identity, perfume, and (French) language instruction, as well as an instructor at the Fragrance Alliance, Daisy interrogates fragrance from a critical, cultural, and academic lens. Today we discuss the colonial roots behind gourmands, the case for the 'basic bitch' perfume, why reformulations are your friends, defining 'sexy' scents, and the notion of cultural appropriation in the age of globalization and transculturation.FRAGS MENTIONED:Celine: Dans Paris, Saint Germain des Pres; Matiere Premiere Parisian Musc, ELOREA Bae Frais, Caron, Gap Dream, CK be, Dior Dune, Chanel No. 5, Debbie Gibson Electric Youth, Mugler: Angel, Alien; EM Molecule 01, Marc Jacobs EDP, Michael Kors, Frederic Malle Outrageous, d’Annam Pho Breakfast, ELOREA, J Scent, Arquiste, Ella K, BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar, Demeter: Jelly Donut, Baby Powder; Pure Instinct, Frederic Malle Saint des SaintsFOLLOW DAISY: @je_suis_daisybTAKE HER COURSE: fragrancealliancenetwork.com/products/perfume-history-y2kBOOK A SCENT STYLING SESSION WITH ME: stele.nyc/emma
