Founded in Zurich in 2005 by Andy Tauer, a trained chemist and self-taught perfumer, the house began as an independent workshop. After its first two creations, Tauer developed a collection composed entirely by its founder. In 2010, the line adopted a standard bottle, while production remained based in Zurich.

Tauer embraces personal, free-spirited and artisanal perfumery, with Andy Tauer working with natural and synthetic materials in compositions conceived as olfactory sculptures. The fragrances are produced in small batches in Zurich. The labels are applied by hand, with Spanish bottles and bakelite caps made in Switzerland.

Right now at Fragsplit, 1 Tauer fragrance is available as a 1 to 10 ml decant: L'Air des Alpes Suisses.
