If you think your perfume collection is unrivaled, meet your rival, Josie Plumey. Not only is Josie an expert in fragrance retail, buying, and distribution, but with over 570 fragrances (inclusive of many rare vintage frags and formulations), she just may have the best personal collection in all of New York! We discuss what it means to be in the perfume distribution biz—Josie is currently the Sales & Community Manager at Kintessence, an exclusive US niche distributor—and Josie gives us the low-down on the scents, including her most prized possessions, that we NEED to know. Plus a word on phrases like ‘clean’ and ‘old lady.’ TL;DR, — stop.
