Ever smelled something that reminds you of food leftovers? We sure have, and on our 300th episode of the Cologne Podcast, returning guest Nikki joins us to revisit a fragrance that's as nostalgic as it is controversial. We find ourselves laughing over a review comparing it to Thanksgiving leftovers and fondly remember Nikki's kitchen skills. As we move on to our one-night stand review of M. Micallef's Red Colorado, we agree it's decent yet not a standout in their lineup, with Nikki taking us on a nostalgic journey to Estes Park, Colorado, adding a personal touch to the episode.
We then explore "Triumph of Bacchus," a scent that dances between sweet white peach, boozy rum, and creamy vanilla, and debate its daring bottle design. A fragrance that seems to have split opinions on its appeal, we liken it to a peach Jolly Rancher. Our conversation takes a fun turn discussing similar scents like Carlisle and Red Tobacco, and our evolving candy preferences. This exploration of "Triumphal Bacchus" wraps up with a hint of green apple and saffron, painting the full picture of this unique olfactory experience.
