R29 Nose Dive

Ever wondered what the Teen Choice Awards smelled like in 2004? What about New York Fashion Week? The pillow menu at the Rosewood Hotel? Welcome to Nose Dive, Refinery29’s brand new fragrance-meets-pop-culture podcast, exploring the scents behind the places, eras, and cultural phenomena we can’t get enough of.

Season One of Nose Dive is produced in partnership with eos. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
