“Bless the Maker and His water.Bless the coming and going of Him.May His passage cleanse the world.May He keep the world for His people. ” - Frank Herbert, Dune In the final episode of Season Two, I’m joined once again by Michael Nordstrand to explore the rich and layered world of Frank Herbert’s Dune.You might remember our first conversation in Episode 51, where we wandered through fairytales and fragrance. This time, we dive into Dune’s politics, ecology, and the power of scent — from the symbolism of spice to the relationships that define key characters in the text.We talk about how Dune continues to shape literature, culture, and even perfume, and reflect on what its themes of power, technology, and environment still teach us today.A reflective close to Season Two — connecting story, scent, and the desert worlds that stay with us long after reading.Fragrances mentioned:Mxxx. - Eris ParfumsPassage d'Enfer - L'Artisan ParfumeurAjedrez - FrassaiInfusion d'Iris - PradaFate Woman - Amouage Figment - Amouage1885 Bains Sulfureux - Les Bains Guerbois Bois Datchaï - Maison CrivelliCabochard Cherie - GresCabochard - GresShalimar - Guerlain Tilda Swinton Like This - Etat Libre d'OrangeBook discussed:Dune - Frank HerbertFind Mythologist Studios (and Michael) online hereInstagram: @michaelnordstrandperfumer@mythologiststudio Website: mythologiststudio.comTheme music for the show was created by Raul Sanchez I Jorge.
