Gypsy Water by Byredo is a fresh, resinous woody scent built for daytime wear. Bergamot and lemon open it bright, with pepper and juniper berries adding a sharp, green snap. Incense and pine needles move it into cooler, forest-like territory, softened by a touch of orris. Amber, vanilla and sandalwood form a warm, smooth base that never gets heavy. Launched in 2008, it suits anyone who likes a scent that reads fresh rather than sweet. Voters wear it in spring and autumn, mostly by day and at the office, which makes it a reliable choice for work. The longevity vote leans moderate. Most wearers vote its sillage moderate too. A 10ml decant carries you through weeks of daily wear before you settle on the bottle.

The community verdict
Gypsy Water moves from lemon, bergamot and pepper into pine needles and incense, then softens into sandalwood and vanilla. Staying power divides between moderate and weak, while most find its projection moderate. Its fresh woods suit casual spring days and work; autumn works too.

More from Byredo
Byredo was founded in Stockholm in 2006 by Ben Gorham, and its perfumes have a spare, Scandinavian clarity. Musk and sandalwood sit under most of them, with violet, blackcurrant and pink pepper for colour and aldehydes for a clean, airy lift. Bal d'Afrique Absolu and the original Bal d'Afrique lead the way, the second a bright mix of citrus, flowers and woods. Gypsy Water is fresh and aromatic over soft woods. Blanche is crisp and pale, all aldehydes, flowers and musk. Mojave Ghost sits between them, woody and floral with a musky finish.
