Description
Perfumes 1996 is a translation of the scent language of a photo taken in that year by leading fashion photographers, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. The image of a little girl, Kirsten, who embodies beauty and innocence, also evokes disturbing connotations - the child has painted lips and an ecstatic expression on her face. To capture these concepts in the scent, the creators gave it a dark, amber character, adding beautiful notes of violet, iris, and juniper berries.

About the brand Byredo
Stockholm-based perfumery house, founded in 2006. Behind the global success and all the brand's creations stands founder and artistic director Ben Gorham. His multicultural background, bridging Canada, India and Sweden, is reflected in the unique character of Byredo perfumes.
"I am not a perfumer. I create a brief and show it to a professional scent creator. Images, film, poetry, music, words, objects, other scents - these are my inspirations... I have trained my nose. I had to learn a different language to communicate with perfumers, but over time I gained experience. From the very beginning, I have also been working with the same specialists. We understand each other perfectly" - says Gorham.
The brand also offers high-quality perfumed skincare products, as well as candles and home fragrances.
Reviews of 1996
These perfumes can be described as a mist full of contradictions. The warm, enveloping base of amber, vanilla and subtle, earthy patchouli is contrasted here with notes of juniper and black pepper. This combination will certainly not remind you of anything you have smelled before. Perfect for those looking for a scent that is a manifesto.
