Thanks for checking out this episode of ‘Man in the Mirror’ podcast. My guest this week is self-styled ‘perfume author’ Jonathan Ward, who is founder of his eponymous brand, well known for exquisite home fragrance and now fine fragrance too.

I first got a Jonathan Ward ‘Kartushya’ candle a few years ago and now and I think it’s still one of the best I’ve ever had. A room-filling, rich fragrance, aesthetically beautiful, a smooth, even burn and using only the finest organic waxes. It’s no wonder his products are sought by the great and the good and can be found in many high-end restaurants, hotels and boutiques.

During our chat Jonathan tells me about his creative process, the move into fine fragrance, what’s coming up this year and some of the recent changes he’s made to his life.

It was a really honest, open and revealing conversation and I’m so grateful to Jonathan for trusting me. You’ll hear how candid he is about past addictions and issues and how determined he is to make this next chapter of his life his most fulfilling and successful yet. I have no doubt he will do it.
