Byredo earns largely positive reviews for sophisticated, unisex fragrances like Gypsy Water, Bal d’Afrique, Mojave Ghost, and Rose of No Man’s Land, with chic minimalist packaging and, for many, all‑day wear. Reviews also flag inconsistency: some scents have weak projection or short longevity, certain items (lipstick, mascara, hair perfumes) disappoint, and a few finds smell overly powdery or sharp; still, the brand’s layered compositions and standout candles keep fans repurchasing.

I love Byredo fragrances. They are unique and excellent quality. I think the fragrances are worth the splurge, especially around the holidays for the sets. I purchased the sampler set, along with some sets that have full size fragrances. I think Young Rose is a new favorite after smelling it in the discovery set. Customer support was excellent and quick. I was not informed that multiple packages would be shipped and the customer support associate communicated with their logistics team and promptly emailed me the other tracking numbers. All packaging was eco friendly. It was paper based so easy to recycle.

What really stands out about Mojave Ghost is its balance. It’s minimal but not boring, delicate but not weak. It works well for everyday wear, especially for school, casual outings, or times when you want to smell nice without drawing too much attention. The longevity is moderate: it lasts several hours but stays subtle throughout.

I bought a sample of the Mojave Ghost fragrance and instantly fell in live. I wish expensive brand like this made smaller sizes for purchase as a full size bottle is simply out of mg budget right now.

First found their rose soap at a speakeasy in NYC, now use it in our guest bathroom and everyone who uses it LOVES it! I know it is pricy, but it makes a great gift and countless friends have purchased after trying it out at our house.

They have a wide range and variety of scents, tied to emotions and memories, so the fragrances tell a story. Bal D’Afrique is the standout for me and I regularly get asked about it when I’m wearing it. It’s rich, complex and layered. The longevity and projection is pretty good.

I have the Bibliothèque and a generic pillow mist and while the fragrance smells nice the projection isn't very strong. The candle has lasted a very long time though.

Byredo has so so many wonderful products. They are absolutely worth the price point, if you can afford to treat yourself once in a while. also make great gifts. I've had several of their perfumes and am obsessed with their vetyver hand cream atm. I will be a customer for years to come!

One of the most complex, an elegant fragrance lines. I just love having them out on the shelf. Even if I don’t wear it every day, though I should!

I’m obsessed with their fragrances, candles, lotions and love the packaging, and I’m a packaging designer. That said I’m feeling like for entering into a time where less packaging is better and I think they could do better Delivering premium experiences with less waste.

My go-to for fragrance! I truly can't live without. My favorite scents are BAL D'AFRIQUE, GYPSY WATER, AND ROSE OF NO MAN'S LAND. It is an investment but so worth it in my opinion.

Bibliotheque Candle had a lovely scent. I purchased the smallest size and I went through it fairly quickly as i light it often.
Feedback
If i were to purchase again, would go for the bigger size.

if it's good enough for marta, it's good enough for me. nothing says rich like bougie body wash and this one is IT, honey. totally worth the splurge and lasts a long time bc a little goes a long way.

The Mojave ghost sent is one of my all-time favorites. Though this brand is expensive, it definitely feels like it’s worth it. The scent lingers which is key. And I fear as obsessed with that as I am, the Conrad Hilton uses it as their brand in the hotel rooms. They’ve got the hand wash and hand cream as well as shampoo and conditioner and body wash. If you wash your hair with it, your hair will smell like it for days, which is incredible.

I loooove Byredo fragrance style. Bal d'Afrique is one of my favs. The ones I tried were long lasting, even if the scent was soft

This brand is for those who's looking for a not too overpowering quality signature scent.

I enjoy it but it’s not my first choice. Personally enjoy more of a floral scent

I feel like the perfume category has been redefined by this very original and very creative brand who has set a new standard for unisex scents that are wonderfully unique, sophisticated and very enjoyable to use. I love the perfume, makeup and hand creams.
Incredibly pricy, but they are the most elegant scents & they last incredibly long. The in-store experience is super bougie. This would make for a great gift!
I ADORE Byredo! The candles, the colognes, all of it is incredible. I love the branding/packaging, and my personal favorites are the Bibliotheque, Woods, and Burning Rose candles and the Mojave Ghost, Reine De Nuit, and Mister Marvelous perfumes
