NEST New York’s Enchanting World, with Laura Slatkin (Part 2 of 2)
Manage episode 419809489 series 3441375
Back in the day, shopping for a scented candle would take you to a dusty shelf in the back of the lingerie department. In came Laura and Harry. When they founded Slatkin & Co in 1992, the couple put home fragrance on the map, creating the category and infusing it with a sense of luxury and refinement. Their first candle, Bamboo, became an instant fan-favorite and remains their #1 bestseller after more than three decades.
In 2008, Laura launched NEST New York, collaborating with master perfumers to create a collection that spans home and fine fragrance. Harry continues to run Slatkin & Co, which includes Homeworx and four other brands.
Hosted by Scentbird’s Brittney Jackson Moseley, this episode is split into two parts:
In Part 1, Laura and Harry open up about the highs and lows of building businesses together, reveal that they didn’t like each other at first, and share the secret to a long and happy marriage. They bring us into their enchanting lifestyle, give us an intimate tour of their home, which doubles as a fragrance testing lab, and share their tips for scenting different rooms to create a sensory paradise for family and friends.
In Part 2, Laura shares an inside look at the NEST New York collection, starting with the 18th-century English artist who inspired the brand’s iconic botanical paintings. She’ll touch on the viral Madagascar Vanilla perfume oil, the crowd-pleaser Grapefruit candle, and the stunning new Lychee Rose fine fragrance. Hear her reaction to a surprising Andy Cohen moment and learn how she recommends layering with perfume oils.
