Ben Gorham, a perfumer and the head of the Swedish fragrance house Byredo, has a penchant for seeking inspiration for new scents in the natural world. This time, for the creation of Byredo Oud Immortel, he found his muse in the agarwood tree, also known as "oud wood." According to the perfumer, Arabian oud is rich in symbolism, evoking reflections on the lost mystical traditions of the East.
His quest to unravel ancient mysteries of existence is conveyed to us through the unique composition of this fragrance. It seems that a journey into bygone eras has infused this scent with motifs of chypre fragrances, now commonly referred to as chypre. Originally, these included scents of oakmoss, patchouli leaf, frankincense "olibanum," and sandalwood with bergamot. Thus, one can expect a similar olfactory experience with Byredo Oud Immortel.
This fragrance will hold a special place among those fascinated by mysticism and philosophy. Men and women, who can confidently be described as thinkers with a particularly profound soul, will appreciate this aromatic creation from the Swedes.
