About us

Over 20 Years of Artisanal Perfumery from Zurich

At Tauer Perfumes, we are proud to celebrate over two decades of crafting artisanal fragrances from our studio in Zurich, Switzerland. Founded in 2005 by Andy Tauer—a chemist by training and a self-taught perfumer—our journey began with a passion for scent and a commitment to authenticity.

What started as a one-man operation has grown into a globally recognized niche perfume house, cherished by fragrance lovers around the world.


The Art of Scent

Andy’s approach to perfumery is deeply personal and artistic. As he says:
“You need absolute freedom to create beautiful fragrances. And you need time. And the best ingredients you can get.”

This philosophy is present in every scent we create—each one a “fragrant sculpture” that tells a story and evokes deep emotion.


Our Fragrance Collections

Our perfumes reflect a wide range of inspirations and olfactory experiences. From timeless classics like L’Air du Désert Marocain to our more experimental releases under the Tauerville label, each fragrance is a journey of its own.

Every perfume is handmade in small batches, ensuring meticulous attention to detail. We blend the finest natural and synthetic ingredients from around the world to create complex, long-lasting scents that resonate on a personal level.


Our Values

Sustainability and ethical responsibility are at the core of what we do. From the ingredients we choose to the way we package and ship our creations, we aim to minimize our environmental footprint—without compromising on quality or luxury.


A Connected Community

Engaging with our community has always been a cornerstone of Tauer Perfumes. Andy began sharing his perfumery journey on his blog in 2006, inviting customers into the creative process. Today, we continue to build on that legacy of openness, curiosity, and mutual inspiration.


Looking Ahead

As we look to the future, our mission remains unchanged: to create beautiful, meaningful fragrances that move, transform, and inspire.

We invite you to experience the world of Tauer Perfumes—where every scent tells a story.
