| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, welcome back to Skin Anarchy. This is Fragrance Friday, and I have such an amazing guest with me today. I am a huge fan of this brand. I think a lot of us are. He's probably seen them all over social media. I know they're TikTok famous. Everybody loves all their fragrances. So without further ado, please welcome the founder and CEO of Dacier Sergio.
