Description
Easily recognizable, the oriental chord is an invitation to a journey through the countries of the Middle East. A joyful caravan, along with shiny resins and their aromas, is constantly on the move. A mishmash of scents is created, where opoponax blends with rum, geranium with rosemary and labdanum, and vanilla with sandalwood and oakmoss. The art of living without fixed rules and celebrating each day gives this composition a deep meaning.
Each Byredo candle has a unique scent, created for the home. The candles are handmade in France using cotton wicks, and the bottles are made of blown glass.

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 Bohemia
Vanilla and sandalwood is a fairly popular combination of scents, in which smoky and sweet notes are balanced. But you can say anything about this candle, just not that it smells ordinary. So if you received it as a gift and want to give it to someone else, it's better not to do it. This rule applies to any other Byredo product, by the way.
