Tesori d'Oriente Byzantium is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Byzantium opens with Mimosa, Cinnamon, and Almond, settles into a heart of Rose, Heliotrope, Honey, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Cacao Pod, Musk, Vanilla, and Peru Balsam. Tesori d'Oriente's Byzantium carries a Statement verdict, an almond-led wear.

Don't let the price tag fool you; Tesori d'Oriente Byzantium is a surprisingly complex, beast-mode cheapie with a divisive but loyal following. Some find it a gourmand dream, others a powdery disaster. Blind buy with caution, but if it works for you, it's an absolute steal that punches way above its weight.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its strong projection and longevity make it less ideal for office settings, as it can be quite potent. The warm, sweet, and sensual character makes it excellent for dates and cozy casual wear, especially in colder months. It's a bit too rich for formal events and completely unsuitable for sport.

About

Byzantium opens with a warm, nutty burst of almond and cinnamon, softened by the delicate powderiness of mimosa. The heart unfolds a rich, sweet blend of honey and a subtle, powdery heliotrope, with rose adding a touch of floral depth. The base settles into a creamy vanilla, hints of cacao, and a balmy sweetness from Peru balsam, wrapped in a lingering musk that can range from clean baby powder to a more complex, almost balsamic oriental warmth.
