15 - Perfumes for Occasions

Les Oderants ·

2022/08/07

This week we actually got a listener question, so what did we do? Spun it out into a full episode topic, of course! Tune in to find out what the best perfume to wear with knee high socks and sandals is, or what to wear to an Iron Maiden gig. You know, important things like that. Also, we peek into the wonderful world of a snake oil, slash, pheromone salesman and talk a bit about their disgusting mulch of a business.

14 - Perfume in Popular Culture

Les Oderants ·

2022/07/25

Welcome to the Les Oderants film review podcast! No not really, but this week we're talking about perfumes in popular culture. At least sometime's we're talking about that. We also get our nose on a couple of samples, one of which we all seem to agree on which is possibly a first, James passes out his favourite Mexican food recipe and Dan tries to hold the whole thing together with his head in is hands.

13 - Some Killa, Much Filla: Perfumers

Les Oderants ·

2022/07/10

This week Dan calls in from a Mongolian phone box to chat with Ben and James about perfumers! Who got mad game and who ain't nuttin' but a name. Is Morillas a genius, a pound shop perfumer or the fragrance Nicholas Cage? Also this week James made Putricine and warns us all not to eat it, whilst Dan spgrrrfshhhhhh... (Seriously though, Dan's audio got garbled sadly. We did what we could to salvage it and promise it won't happen again). You can contact us via email at lesoderants@gmail.com or via

12 - Getting Conceptual

Les Oderants ·

2022/06/26

This week we're talking about the concepts behind the perfumes. Can a good concept make or break a good perfume, or is it all just a pile of pretentious guff, cooked up by an eccentric during a fever dream? From historical Navy battles to the sterility of the 9-5 workplace, there's seemingly a concept that can appeal to anyone, but is that really a good thing? There's also a remarkable number of perfumes that try to conjure up our filthy bits, what's that all about? Also, why it's important to

11 - House Cup: Hermes

Les Oderants ·

2022/06/12

This week is all about Hermes. Is it just thee best house of all time? Yes, no, maybe, but one thing is for certain, JCE put in a jolly good effort during his time as the in house perfumer. Is Christine Nagel up to filling his boots, and would they even look good on her, anyway? Also, Ben eats his words RE: Floraiku, Dan stinks his house out with ultra-Kouros candles and James wows us all with his bargain bin masterpiece.

10 - All About Wood

Les Oderants ·

2022/05/30

This week we talk about wood and what wood smells like. Surprisingly, it smells more like public toilets than you might imagine. We make lots of jokes about having wood, sniffing wood and awkwardly inserting innuendo into as many sentences as possible because we're tedious bores. We also have a good chat about Eau Givree, the new Terre d'Hermes flanker.

09 - The Allure of the Indecent

Les Oderants ·

2022/05/15

This week we're talking about things that stink. Are perfumes that smell of all sorts of bodily excretions really so wrong, or as Frédéric Malle puts it, do we all just need a little more humour? That's the big discussion for part two, after we talk about the risks of perfumes being named after cities, the wonderful scent of Professor Burps Bubbleworks and Dan and James discuss the D.

08 - Gourmands: Is it Cake?

Les Oderants ·

2022/05/01

This week we're talking about Gourmands. Where does one draw the line between vanilla cake and something worth investigating? Ben and Dan play James's new game: Gourmand or Not? And most unusually, there seems to be something of a consensus at the end of it all. We promise not to do it again.

07 - Niche Quality

Les Oderants ·

2022/04/17

This week on Les Oderants, what is "Niche"? Has the word become utterly meaningless? Could Dan's recording this week be considered Niche Quality, or did he just record the wrong mic? Big questions. Also, how to smell like Princess Di, James confesses his love for Aventus clones and Dan explains the best way to apply Kouros.

06 - Underrated & Overrated

Les Oderants ·

2022/04/03

This week we're back with a spicy discussion on what we think is underrated Vs what we think is overrated. Is anything really underrated or overrated? And what do the two terms mean anyway? Do we figure it all out? Of course not. Also some chat about Aventus because Aventus and Roja fights back. Remember when I said we promise to make the episodes shorter in future? We lied.

05 - Musk Ado About Nothing

Les Oderants ·

2022/03/20

This week is all about Musks! What are they, where do they come from and what do they want with our perfume?! Also, Ben has a rant about Roja and Dan has a rant about Ben and James. Join us for a bumper episode of Les Oderants.. We promise it will be shorter in future!

04 - Chypre: Who Cares About Genre Anyway?

Les Oderants ·

2022/03/06

This week we're talking about the humble Chypre. What is it, or rather, is it anything at all? Is anything really true anymore? Not according to Dan, who has his Fougere worldview broken to pieces by James. We also discuss the news of a new Terre d'Hermes flanker and shill Zaharoff like the good bunch of influencers we are. And yes, that was sarcasm. You can contact us via email at lesoderants@gmail.com or via Instagram: Dan: fragrance_weirdo James: houdini_sotd Ben: talking_scents During the show

03 - House Cup: Dior

Les Oderants ·

2022/02/20

In this episode, we discuss the house of Christian Dior and make our arguments for their most important perfume release. If that sounds like a daunting task, wait til you hear the perfumes actually chosen... We also talk a bit about Memo's new release and why we already don't like it and discuss the scent of an over-ripe peach. Say it with me one more time, an over-ripe peach.

02 - Is Vintage Better?

Les Oderants ·

2022/02/06

This week we're talking about vintages! What's so special about oak-moss and what the hell is IFRA anyway? We wax poetic about Kouros, which is apparently everyones dads perfume, and ask the important question, is everything old inherently good, or is modern perfumery just a load of old guff?

01 - Is anything worth anything?

Les Oderants ·

2022/01/25

Welcome to the first episode of Les Oderants! Kicking us off this week is bit of news about a couple of perfumes that Dan hates and then we move on to our main discussion, is anything worth anything? Perfume can be expensive, but is it really worth it? How do you decide the value of a perfume anyway and does a bottle of toilet duck really smell any better or worse than a cowshed? Intriguing stuff. Perfumes mentioned in the main discussion on this episode were: Rubeus Milano - Blue Royal Crown -

Les Oderants ·
