The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2015, Gypsy Water Hair Perfume by Byredo is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that weaves together the warmth of amber and vanilla with the freshness of citrus and spicy notes. The composition opens with pepper and juniper berries, giving way to bergamot and lemon, which are then complemented by incense and pine needles. Orris adds an earthy touch before settling into a base of sandalwood and warm balsamic accords. This scent captures the essence of adventure and comfort, blending modern sensibilities with lasting scents.
This fragrance has a strong initial burst of spiciness from pepper and juniper berries that fades within an hour. The base notes take about two hours to fully settle, so apply it in layers for a more balanced experience throughout the day.
