The story behind the bottle.
Gypsy Water Eau de Cologne by Byredo, launched in 2014, is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of an adventurous spirit. The opening notes of bergamot and lemon create a bright, fresh aroma, while juniper berries and pepper add a subtle spiciness. As it settles into its heart, pine tree and incense introduce an earthy warmth, complemented by the powdery notes of orris root. The base of vanilla, sandalwood, and amber provides a grounding, woody sweetness that lingers throughout the day.
Apply this fragrance in light sprays — the citrus and aromatic top notes can be overpowering if used too heavily. The woody base will gradually unfold over time, so it’s best to let it develop naturally on your skin.
