Fragrance house

Nos Republic

Nos Republic grew out of Ksenia Golovanova’s eponymous perfume blog, which she described as her first Telegram channel about perfume, and was established in Sweden in 2023. Golovanova is the founder and creative mind behind the brand, whose identity treats fragrance as a primal, unfiltered sensation capable of bringing together people from different cultures and walks of life; its stories draw on her culture while aiming for universal resonance. The brand launched six fragrance stories in 2023. Its fragrances have been developed with independent perfumers including Cristiano Canali, Stéphanie Bakouche, Valery Mikhalitcyn and Maria Golovina. Tansu Silk received the editorial Debut of the Year recognition for 2023, while Queer de Russie received the readers’ Best Niche Perfume title; the brand also records an Art and Olfaction Award in 2024 and a FiFi Russian Fragrance Awards Premiere of the Year 2023 recognition. Cor Serpentis later opened the Dark Matter chapter, presenting a space-themed direction through an alien woody fragrance imagined by Stéphanie Bakouche.
