Byredo Desert Dawn was launched in 2024. A woody spicy unisex fragrance, it has notes of cardamom, rose petals, carrot seeds, sandalwood, cedarwood, silk, musk, papyrus and vetiver. Byredo Desert Dawn is an edp, eau de parfum.
From the brand - "Desert Dawn by Byredo is a celebration of nature’s creative juxtapositions, offering a universal take on the woody olfactive family. This scent opens with the inviting sweet spices of cardamom and rose petals, before giving way to the enveloping warmth of sandalwood, cedarwood, and carrot seeds at the heart. An enticing finish of vetiver and silk musk is enlivened by the crisp, clean scent of papyrus, invoking the dry heat of the desert and the warmness of the first rays of dawn."
Founded in 2006 in Sweden Byredo perfume's creator Ben Gorham (former basketball player) wanted to create perfumes of quality while keeping their production in Sweden. Gorham had been fascinated with fragrance much of his life. When he meet Pierre Wulff, a perfumer, Byredo came into being.
Fragrantica - "This is a very Byredo scent. Not far from Bibliotheque. This kind of reminds me of a dry version of something by Sergei Lutens, some sort of suede scent. "
Fragrantica - "Right off the bat this opens very fresh with the cardamom and maybe a little rose but not a traditional in your face rose smell. It quickly turns into a beautiful soft woody scent in the dry down with the sandalwood, cedar wood, and vetiver becoming front and center."
Fragrantica - "This reminds me of lots of different fragrances. Papyrus from S33, cedar wood from Byredo Super Cedar, carrot seed and sandalwood from Kilian Sacred Wood, and musk fixatives from Arquiste Peau. It's exactly how I'd imagined it would smell. Dusty, woody musky, slightly earthy."
