The story behind the bottle.
Zeta by Tauer Perfumes was launched in 2011 and crafted by Andy Tauer. This floral composition opens with a vibrant burst of citrus — bergamot, Amalfi lemon, orange, and lime (linden) blossom — that creates an immediate sense of freshness and brightness. The heart of the fragrance is where it truly shines: a delicate balance of yellow florals such as African orange flower, rose, ylang-ylang, and neroli adds a sweet and powdery quality. Sandalwood and orris root anchor the base with a soft warmth that complements the floral notes without overpowering them.
Apply Zeta with two sprays to your pulse points. The citrus top notes are bright but fade within the first hour, so it’s best for daytime wear when you want a fresh floral presence. The base notes of sandalwood and orris root will linger throughout the day, providing a warm and comforting finish.
