Bibliothèque is a big hit in the history of BYREDO. This Swedish firm reinvented luxury perfumery in 2006. It sounds epic. It is. With BYREDO he set a milestone in the industry with his understanding of fragrances (free, exquisite, timeless).
Bibliothèque does not smell like an old book, it smells like everything you could find in a utopian library: flowers in a vase, wooden floor, the vegetal touch of paper. And peach plays quite a role too. It is complex and desirable. Libraries are complex and desirable.
One piece of advice: Light your candle for a few hours the first time, at least until the wax is completely melted. Never leave it unattended.
FAMILY: woody.
OLFACTORY NOTES:
- Top: peach and plum.
- Heart: violet and peony.
- Base: patchouli, leather and vanilla.
We like it for:
- It is conceptual, complex, but easy to carry.
- Everything is exquisite: the glass, the name, the packaging.
- It smells BYREDO
