Where passion for perfume becomes innovation
BODÉ STUDIOS was founded in Switzerland in February 2021 by Lino Bottani and Nicola Deflorin. What started as a bold idea during the pandemic in 2020 quickly evolved into a grand vision: to rethink the niche fragrance market from the ground up and redefine it with Swiss precision and extraordinary attention to detail. With a wealth of creativity and a deep passion for exclusive scent compositions, they created a modern yet timeless brand that seamlessly blends tradition with innovation.

The two founders share a love for exceptional fragrances. Their enthusiasm led them from being mere fragrance enthusiasts to becoming industry pioneers. Their mission: to combine the highest product quality with unique scent creations and craft perfumes that truly stand out in the world of fragrance.
Together with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm, they developed the scent FUCHSROT, which became an instant success. This earthy, slightly grassy fragrance was the first Swiss perfume to win an international award in 2023, triumphing over more than 3,000 submissions from around the globe to claim the prestigious Art and Olfaction Award as the best niche fragrance of the year. It remains the first and only Swiss creation ever to receive this accolade.
Next came SATIN CACHE, a fruity and sparkling fragrance that gained significant acclaim, particularly in the Middle East and South America. Across all their creations, they followed a simple yet essential principle: to develop scents that are both unique and innovative, yet wearable in everyday life.
Their third perfume, OUD SAMBAC, launched at the end of February 2025, blends Indian oud with Arabian jasmine blossom. A sweet and seductive fragrance known for its exceptional longevity and high concentration of essential oils.


At BODÉ STUDIOS, it’s not just about the fragrance itself, the bottle and luxurious packaging are just as important. All perfumes come with a magnetic cap and the world’s best atomizer, creating the ultimate “wow-effect” without leaving stains on clothing and ensuring an exceptional sillage. The founders place great emphasis on quality, which is why every perfume contains a fragrance concentration of over 18%, guaranteeing long-lasting wear and optimal development of the scent’s various notes.
The founders’ friendship began on the football field at a young age. Together, they created three remarkable Swiss perfumes and received multiple awards for their work. In September 2025, after more than four years of BODÉ STUDIOS, they appeared on Die Höhle der Löwen (Shark Tank) Switzerland, where they gained valuable experience presenting their brand to the investors and countless cameras – although they ultimately did not secure a deal.
After the episode aired in October 2025, Nicola Deflorin left the company to pursue other ventures. However, the vision and mission of BODÉ STUDIOS remain unchanged: to craft extraordinary Swiss niche fragrances that leave a lasting impression.
