#1 - I had no idea about fragrances – and yet I still put all my eggs in one basket.

Why would someone choose to leave a secure job to pursue scent marketing?

In the first episode of Scent Marketing Talk, Jens tells how a single newspaper article laid the foundation for over 27 years of scent marketing – without prior experience, without the internet, but with plenty of curiosity and courage.

Together, we discuss the beginnings of scent marketing in Germany, early scent creations like Fresh Office, the risks of self-employment, and why scents often have an effect before we even consciously think about it.

A personal founding story, genuine insights behind the scenes, and numerous examples of why scent is so much more than just "it smells good."

This episode is for anyone who wants to understand how scent influences emotions, behavior, and decisions – in business as well as in everyday life.
