BYREDO: Night Veils Extraits de Parfums | AMAZING FRAGRANCES

In October of last year, Byredo launched the first line of their Night Veils, extraits de parfum dedicated to three flowers: lily (Casablanca Lily), jasmine (Midnight Candy) and rose (Reine de Nuit) – night plants known for their seductive and lush aura. It’s not the first time veils are a source of inspiration for the founder of the brand: in 2011 the fragrance Seven Veils was launched, a spicy oriental composition built around the warmth of vanilla flower and Indian sandalwood. In an interview, Gorham explained: “I really like the idea of doing perfume as a veil, in terms of security, and that feeling of covering yourself in something. There’s this biblical reference I remembered from Catholic school, ‘Salam’s dance of seven veils,’ that I thought was a very extreme tale of seduction.”
