The Nanny season 4 episode 15, titled "The Nose Knows," follows Fran Fine, a fashionable and bubbly woman from Queens, as she navigates her role as the nanny for the Sheffield family. In this episode, Fran's friend Val sends her a sample of a new perfume that she has created called "Valentina."

Excited to try it out, Fran sprays the perfume on herself but finds that the scent is overpowering. Meanwhile, Maxwell Sheffield, the patriarch of the family, is working to secure a new client, a wealthy businessman named Mr. Barker. However, when Mr. Barker comes to the house for a meeting, he is seemingly put off by Fran's perfume.

Unaware that her perfume is the reason for Mr. Barker's discomfort, Fran becomes insecure and self-conscious about her appearance and her scent. Feeling discouraged, she turns to her grandmother Yetta for advice. Yetta suggests that Fran try out a remedy from her homeland of Russia to get rid of her pungent smell.

Fran takes Yetta's advice and goes to a Russian spa where she is subjected to a series of humiliating and bizarre treatments. Ultimately, Fran realizes that she doesn't need to change who she is to impress others and that she should embrace her uniqueness.

Meanwhile, Maxwell tries to salvage his business deal with Mr. Barker by appealing to his sense of smell. He realizes that Mr. Barker has a heightened sense of smell, which is why Fran's perfume was so overwhelming for him. Maxwell then hires a specialist to create a new scent for the Sheffield household that Mr. Barker will find appealing.

In the end, Fran and Maxwell's efforts pay off, and Mr. Barker agrees to do business with the Sheffield's. Fran learns to love herself for who she is and to not be ashamed of her scent. The episode ends with the Sheffield family enjoying their new scent and Fran feeling confident in her own skin once again.

"The Nose Knows" is a heartwarming episode that reminds viewers to accept themselves for who they are. With its quirky humor and lovable characters, it is a must-watch for fans of The Nanny.
