Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Flowerhead EDP
Flowerhead is a divisive, full-throttle white floral that polarises with its sheer intensity. Expect a beautiful, yet overwhelming, bouquet or a synthetic headache-inducer. It's a statement, certainly not for the faint-hearted.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Byredo Flowerhead Oil
Byredo Flowerhead is a modern, fresh floral composition suited for daytime wear. It's charming yet subtle, perfect for spring and summer outings.

Season and Occasion Fit

Flowerhead

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its beast-mode projection and longevity make it utterly unsuitable for the office, risking offence. However, this powerful sillage is perfect for making an impression on a date or at a formal event. It's too grand for casual wear and far too intense for sport.

Byredo Flowerhead

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The floral and green notes make it ideal for warmer seasons like spring and summer. It's less suited for colder weather where heavier compositions prevail.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

The scent's moderate projection and floral freshness lend well to office and date settings. A bit too elaborate for sports, but suitable for casual and formal occasions depending on preference.
