Byredo De Los Santos is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Jérôme Epinette. De Los Santos opens with Mirabelle Plum and Sage, settles into a heart of Cistus Incanus and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Ambroxan, and Frankincense. Byredo's De Los Santos carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Divisive, intriguing, and undeniably unique, De Los Santos is Byredo at its most abstract. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for those who crave herbal dryness, but be warned: some batches might turn dodgy, so buyer beware.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its moderate sillage and 'clean' yet 'medicinal' profile make it generally suitable for close-quarters like the office, appealing to those seeking something unique without being overwhelming. However, its often noted poor longevity means it's less ideal for longer engagements like dates or formal events, and the dry herbal character isn't suited for sport.

About

De Los Santos opens with a blast of aromatic sage and a hint of sweet mirabelle plum, quickly settling into a dry, almost medicinal herbal core. Orris adds a touch of powdery sophistication, while cistus incanus brings a resinous, amber warmth. The drydown unveils a clean, woody musk, interwoven with ambroxan and the deep, spiritual hum of frankincense.
