Bruno Fazzolari

Bruno Fazzolari, a self-taught perfumer and visual artist who grew up between the southwestern United States and France, began creating scents in 2003 tied to his experience of synesthesia and his paintings. He sold his fragrances directly from his artist website starting in 2013, quit his job as an art professor as sales grew, and launched the brand FZOTIC in 2017, hand-crafting everything in his San Francisco studio.
