Angelique Nadau

Angélique Nadau brings an unlikely musicality to her work as Senior Perfumer at Takasago. She describes fragrance itself as music that you hear with your nose, a philosophy that shapes everything she creates. Her career found its footing at Dragoco, the historic fragrance house where she built her foundational skills before rising to her current position among Takasago's leading creators. Childhood experiences first sparked her connection to scent, and she has spoken openly about how those early memories continue to influence her approach to composition. Based in the United States with Takasago, Nadau has contributed to the company's work in both consumer and fine fragrance, though her most celebrated work remains relatively under the radar of mainstream fragrance coverage. She represents a growing number of perfumers who see their craft as an art form bridging sensory and emotional experience.
