"I think there is something particular in the night, it is a different world of possibilities; another version of you, a night sense of duality". - Ben Gorham, creative director and founder of Byredo.
Rouge Chaotique, the first gourmand fragrance to the Oud of our Night Veils collection, is inspired by the belief of Ben Gorham according to which the acceptance of chaos within any creative process can generate unique expressive forms.
In the head, a prelude to precious saffron leaves room for the fresh juiciness of the black currant and bergamot, with a spicy leather digression. Soft and velvety Gourmand notes form the heart, while the hints of the plum syrup and the toasted sweetness of the praline are transformed into an irresistible prohibited pleasure. Obtained from one of the most sought after raw materials in the world, the animal sensuality of the Oud leads to the spectacular ending, mixed with the patchouli and balanced by the creaking of the papyrus leaves.
Distilled in pure essence, a small amount of Rouge Chaotique acts closer to the skin and spreads through the heat of the body, persisting for many hours.
