Baudelaire

Byredo Baudelaire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. Baudelaire opens with Caraway, Juniper, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Leather, Hyacinth, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Papyrus, Patchouli, and Amber. Byredo's Baudelaire carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

A truly polarising scent, Baudelaire provokes strong reactions. Some hail it as a masterpiece of dark luxury, a complex journey through incense and leather. Others find it unoriginal, fleeting, or simply too much. Love it or hate it, Baudelaire certainly leaves an impression.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

The strong, dark accords of leather, incense, and amber make it too heavy for widespread office use, though some find it suitable. Its mysterious and warm character, coupled with good longevity, makes it ideal for dates and evening formal events rather than casual or sport activities.

About

Baudelaire opens with a sharp, fresh spicy kick of juniper and pepper, softened by caraway. This quickly transitions into a leathery, smoky heart where incense and hyacinth add an unexpected floral hint. The dry down is a rich, dark amber with earthy patchouli and papyrus, creating a sophisticated and mysterious aura. It's a scent that evolves, revealing new facets over time.
