Made together
Collaborations with people and places I admire.
What I make
- Short videos on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, one house or one bottle at a time.
- Event coverage as a series, like 13 house-by-house episodes from the FUMED Atlanta floor.
- Hosting, like Pass the Blotter at ScentFest SF.
- Introductions: perfumers before the show, and founders at their launch, like Kim-Van Dang at Saks Fifth Avenue on November 4, 2026.
- In conversation features with shop owners and makers, in their own words.
From hello to live
Say hello first
Tell me what you're launching. No brief required.
Send it
Once we have talked, send a sample or a full bottle, whichever you have.
I smell and dig in
Three to seven days, and a real opinion.
If it moves me, it goes live
Usually seven to ten days, always disclosed. If it doesn't, you'll hear that too.
The ground rules
- Every gifted, sampled or paid product is disclosed, and so are affiliate links and codes.
- I keep full creative control.
- A gifted bottle doesn't guarantee a post.
- Usage rights and exclusivity are agreed separately.
Let's talk
There's no public rate card. A house just starting out and one with full US distribution aren't the same conversation.
