179. THE ALLOY STUDIO ~ A Perfume with a 'Trashy Perfume' Accord?!

The Alloy Studio is an experimental, Black, queer-owned fragrance brand blending glamour with grit. Created by romantic and business partners Bryson Ammons (the perfumer) and Eddie Hodges (the creative director), their fragrances dare and delight with notes like pineapple popsicle, sativa, and 'trashy perfume.'

This week, we get the inside scoop on the brand's silver/gold aesthetic, Bryson’s independent but community-rooted path to perfumery, and some ACTUAL piping-hot takes.

WATCH THE FULL VID EP LATER THIS WEEK ONLY ON SUBSTACK!
