“People are more experimental today, applying fragrances in various forms. At Byredo, our focus has been very much on the smells, we now want to focus on innovative ways to apply perfume.” – Ben Gorham
Byredo presents a hair perfume collection that invites you to care for and delicately scent the hair in one sensuous beautifying gesture. Enjoy the uplifting power of long lasting scents as they subtly diffuse throughout the day, amplified by the natural movement of the hair. Each hair perfume combines one of Byredo’s signature scents with a unique silicone and polymer formula to create a light, invisible veil designed to leave the hair nourished and luminous whilst divinely scented.
The Fragrance - Gypsy Water
When Ben Gorham lived in Italy, he frequently observed the Romany washing their clothes in the nearby river. Gypsy Water is the result of Gorham's fascination with the Romany people and their lifestyle. The scent itself as a tribute to their free and independent, proud and colourful life in harmony with nature. Gypsy Water evokes images of fresh soil, deep forests and campfires, and is fitting tribute to the ancient myth of Romany life.
A hesperidian and pepper rendezvous in the top notes, accompanied by fruity, tangy juniper berries lead to a smoky-woody heart: Frankincense, pine needles and iris create an impression of forests and campfires, while a base of ambery vanilla and sandalwood, evokes images of sweet, colourfully glowing embers.
A wildly romantic notion, and a wild, romantic fragrance. Are you (still) "Wild at Heart"? Then Gypsy Water is guaranteed the right perfume for you.
