Summary
Today we are joined by the one, the only, Ashley Benson! Actress/Tastemaker/Entrepreneur-extraordinaire, you might know her as Hanna Marin from Pretty Little Liars. Ashley further proves my theory that all the best celebs love perfume; she just launched her own line, Ash by Ashley Benson. We discuss the first two fragrance launches in the collection and the personal inspiration and stories behind both, how she tailors her aesthetic to whatever city she’s in, her PLL days and what Hanna would have worn, and what it’s like being in perhaps the most extroverted career as someone who is naturally shy. This episode was such a fun and personal conversation with Ashley; ENJOY!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the perfume room. |
| 0:12.5 | My scent of the day today is the eighth from Ash by Ashley Benson because, as you |
| 0:17.5 | will hear in today's episode, Ashley Benson has now launched a fragrance line |
| 0:21.4 | and she has launched two fragrances in the collection thus far of the two, which are the 8th and |
| 0:27.3 | East 12th. I am definitely more partial to this one and I have genuinely been reaching for it |
| 0:31.8 | and enjoying it a lot in the last week. The notes listed are Bergamott, Musk, and Kashmir Woods, |
| 0:37.3 | but in true Emma form, |
| 0:38.9 | I will tell you what it smells like to me. I would describe it as a spicy, peppery rose scent |
| 0:45.4 | that sits on the fresh side. In fact, if you've ever smelled something like Toy Boy from Moschino, |
| 0:51.1 | I feel like we're in like the same general world. Maybe these fragrances could be |
| 0:55.2 | cousins. Though for the record, I do prefer the eighth to Toyboy. And here's the best part. Ashley was |
| 1:02.2 | kind enough to create a special discount code for any perfume room listeners. If you feel inspired to |
| 1:07.8 | try either ash fragrance or both after this interview, go to ash by |
| 1:12.6 | Ashley Benson.com and use the code perfume room for 15% off any purchase. And to be clear, |
| 1:20.5 | I am not an affiliate in any way. I do just genuinely enjoy the eighth. And if you have a PLL fan |
| 1:25.5 | in your life, I feel like it would be such a fun gift. |
| 1:28.3 | I mean like the 8mm later travel size would be a good stocking stuffer. |
| 1:32.3 | Anyway, here is the even better news. |
| 1:36.3 | Ashley Benson is today's guest. |
| 1:39.3 | I repeat, today we are joined by the inimitable Ashley Benson. |
| 1:45.8 | Ashley is a critically acclaimed actress, tastemaker, and entrepreneur, |
| 1:49.7 | and you probably know her from her role as Hannah Marin in Pretty Little Liars, |
