About Us:

NOYZ is a first-of it’s-kind fine fragrance house born in LA. Fragrances fueled by feelings, not fantasies are made with unconventional, clean ingredients and innovative formats. Always rooted in real, raw and authentic storytelling. We’re flipping the script on the category, replacing perfection with personality and industry rules with a bit of rebellion. Refinery 29 said it best, “NOYZ is the brand for the cool kids who don’t want to smell like everyone else.”

Backed by Beach House Group — the powerhouse behind BÉIS by Shay Mitchell, Pattern by Tracee Ellis Ross, and florence by mills — NOYZ is the next category-defining brand. Based in Los Angeles with offices in El Segundo, our team is built for impact, bringing together brilliant minds to push boundaries and challenge the status quo.

The 30,000 Foot View:

At NOYZ, we move fast, think big and play where culture is created – not copied. This is a team that embraces creative freedom and storytelling, while having fun doing things differently.

We move at the speed of culture, obsess over the details, and bring standout products to market.
