Chriselle started as an OG fashion influencer. In 2021, she took over Phlur during a divorce and used fragrance to create what some call her “breakup album.” The result? A collection that’s as personal as it gets, capturing a whirlwind of emotions as she embarked on a new life chapter.
In this episode, Chriselle sits down with Marianne Mychaskiw, who runs communications at Scentbird. We explore the power of scent in tough times, why skin musks are here to stay, and the story behind her viral fragrance, Missing Person, which drew a waitlist of 200,000 before it even dropped.
