On this week’s episode of To Dine For, host Kate Sullivan is joined by Carina Chaz, founder of DedCool, a fragrance brand that she started at just 21 years old.

Chaz lives in Los Angeles, and she is a self-taught “fragrance composer.” She created her company as an extension of her passion for cologne and masculine scents. Chaz cultivated an early appreciation for natural ingredients before clean beauty was a hashtag.

Her curiosity led her to create to DedCool, a fragrance brand that takes issues seriously, just not itself. From sourcing and formulation to packaging and end use, the system demanded change and Chaz stepped in.
