SCENT STORIES: JODIE KIDD

SCENT STORIES: JODIE KIDD

Olfaction (the sense of smell) is one of our most powerful senses. In our Scent Stories series Aja Botanicals’ founder, Tilly Wood, invites people to talk to her about how they use scent in their lives to create ambience and influence their state of mind, as well as sharing what moments, memories, people and activities certain scents evoke for them. 

In this episode of Scent Stories, Tilly Wood talks to her friend, model and TV presenter Jodie Kidd, about scents that remind Jodie of her childhood, her passion for car racing and the aromas of the kitchen garden at her pub The Half Moon in West Sussex. 

Jodie Kidd is a model and TV presenter who rose to fame during the 1990s to become one of the most successful supermodels of her generation. She has appeared on popular television shows including Strictly Come Dancing, Celebrity MasterChef and as the co-host of The Classic Car Show. She has also enjoyed a career as a successful Maserati racing driver and hosts the YouTube channel Kidd In A Sweet Shop, which is dedicated to her love of cars. She is the landlady of The Half Moon pub in Kirdford, West Sussex, an advocate for the “Long Live the Local” campaign, co-owner of organic skincare brand Skin and Tonic, partner of eco-conscious clothing brand Manava and a co-founder of healthy food company Indios Foods.
