Join us for an engaging 'in conversation' style event with Suzy Nightingale, a multi-award-winning fragrance journalist and podcaster.

Join us for an engaging 'in conversation' style hybrid event with Suzy Nightingale, a multi- award-winning fragrance journalist and podcaster. Suzy co-hosts the popular On the Scent podcast and contributes as a freelance writer to esteemed publications such as The Scented Letter magazine, The Perfume Society, Harrods Magazine, Condé Nast Traveller, and Grazia ME.

Suzy’s been passionate about perfume since childhood. Choosing Chanel Coco aged 10, she now owns over 1,000 (probably - she’s never counted!) across all genres. Sharing her expertise through writing, co-hosting the On the Scent podcast, hosting live events and masterclasses, and on her SubStack: Noted by Suzy Nightingale. Her work spans creative features, copywriting, and guesting on international radio shows; delighting readers and listeners with her extensive knowledge and enthusiasm for the world of fragrance.

Suzy is based in the UK and will be attending the event online.
