Malin+Goetz' New Twist on Classic Scents, with Matthew Malin & Andrew Goetz (Scent World E24)

Описание: What does a simple skincare routine look like? At a time when skincare was becoming more and more complicated, Matthew and Andrew went a different direction: less, but better. They started Malin+Goetz in 2004 with just six essential products that worked for all skin types, tones, and genders. Today, fragrance is the brand’s fastest-growing category, with two collections that create a sense of balance: “the (un)florals” and “the vices.”

In this episode, Matthew and Andrew sit down with Brittney Jackson Moseley, who runs integrated marketing at Scentbird. They talk about the bridge between perfumery and apothecary, take us back to their first Chelsea store, and reveal how they’ve put a new twist on scents like tomato, rum, and cannabis.
