  Pros

  Contrary to my concerns, the diffusion power is better than expected. The fragrance has a toned-down lemon and vanilla scent. More emphasis is placed on the vanilla, so it has a sweet fragrance. The lingering vanilla scent is really nice.

  Cons

  Since it's a perfume, the initial alcohol scent is strong and irritates the nose, causing sneezing. This was also the case with Blanche... And one more thing, both Blanche and Gypsy Water have an artificial scent, which seems to irritate the nose. For reference, Black Safran didn't have the nose-irritating effect (so when buying Gypsy Water, I deliberated between Black Safran and Gypsy Water, and ended up buying Gypsy Water since it's one of the best-selling fragrances). Next time, I'll definitely buy Black Safran.

  Tip

  The eau de toilette, which has a mild scent from the beginning, seems to have a gentle lingering scent that comes up early, but the longevity and diffusion power are too poor. The eau de parfum has a strong scent in the beginning, so I'm a little hesitant to use it daily... But Byredo seems to have well resolved the major concerns about fragrances. Overall, the fragrances feel light, so it's good to use daily. Although I was initially disappointed, after using it for a month, I find myself spraying Byredo more often than other fragrances. The best part is that it's comfortable and works well as a light daily fragrance! This is the characteristic of Byredo fragrances.
