130. What Makes a Perfume a Smash Hit? (w/ Chromeo's Dave 1!)

Perfume Room

Dave 1 is the guitarist and lead vocalist of the Grammy-nominated, Electro-Funk duo Chromeo, and he’s also a fraghead. This week he’s in the Perfume Room talking about everything from the the F-Boy scent of Paris you never saw coming, gems from his personal collection, perfumes you'll never catch him wearing, the evolution of his own taste, smells from different places and points in his life, and his *highly efficient and innovative* means of teaching himself new hobbies.
