Nathalie Feisthauer is a perfumer with an unmistakable signature. Elegant, idiosyncratic, and full of contrasts. Born in Paris and trained at ISIPCA, she began her career at Givaudan , where she learned from masters like Jean Guichard. Her curiosity and refined sense of smell led her from classic French style to the creative freedom of the niche world. After decades with major fragrance houses, she founded her own studio, LAB Scent, in Paris, a creative space where she works completely independently on fragrances for brands like Nicolai , Etat Libre d'Orange , Amouage , and Gallivant .
Her compositions are expressive and vibrant. They play with the tension between softness and strength, between flowers, woods, and unexpected accents. Feisthauer's style is both intellectual and sensual: she constructs her perfumes as stories in which each ingredient has a voice. She sees scent as a form of freedom, a means of celebrating personality rather than concealing it.
