Nose Candy

This week ladies are spray-tanned, guru-canned and taking the stand (with perfume on hand) to select the Scent of the Summer. The gals showed up to Nose Candy HQ in matching gay guy uniforms with only one thing on the brain: beach season! That means nonbinary frags, a Blue Crush perfume, and a sunscreen standby with notes of, you guessed it, bug spray. Grab your towel and slip into your slides because this is one wet and wild ep that you won't want to miss!Fragrances Discussed:Tropical Punch by EscadaSolinotes GrenadeSecretions Magnifiques by Etat Libre D'OrangeCalvin Klein EscapeTheodoros Kalotinis lemon tartCK OneMichael Jordan LegendWave Child by Room 1015Kenzo JungleAromatics Elixir by CliniqueOui Plus by KyseInvasion Barbare by MDCIVacation PerfumeVanille Banane by Comptoir Sud PacifiqueVanille Extreme by Comptoir Sud PacifiqueVanille Coco by Comptoir Sud Pacifique
