Verdúu

Verdúu is a niche fragrance label founded in Munich in 2015 by Alexander Botov. Verdúu GmbH was incorporated there on 15 May 2015, with Botov and Tino Müller named as its initial managing directors. The brand pairs emerging fashion designers with perfumers, translating their creative ideas, inspirations, and identities into fragrances. Its perfumes are collaborations with fashion designers, with Mark Buxton as the perfumer behind the brand. The creative team also included photographer Björn Jonas as creative director. Verdúu’s first three fragrances were associated with Berlin designers Hien Le, Sissi Goetze, and Michael Sontag. Its debut, Hien Le No. 1, launched in July 2015 as a collaboration between Hien Le and Buxton, drawing on Le’s Spring/Summer 2016 fashion inspiration.
