Fragrance house

Nadia Z

Nadia Z is a Swiss fragrance house founded in 2013 by Nadia Zuodar, who is identified as its founder, director, perfumer and creator. Based in Pully, within Switzerland’s Lavaux UNESCO World Heritage Site, the brand draws on Zuodar’s training in physics, biochemistry and neurobiology research, as well as more than a decade of international-development and humanitarian work. Its fragrance line launched in 2014. Nadia Z’s creative identity centers on natural perfumery using indigenous plant materials, with compositions presented as interpretations of nature, cultures and Zuodar’s heritage. The collection is organized around ecosystems including forest, oceanic, Mediterranean, desert, steppe and woodland, reflecting the interconnectedness of life within environments. Its limited-edition model is presented as a biodiversity measure: formulations may change when rare ingredients become scarce, endangered or unavailable from a trusted supplier.
