Airy woods meet soft smoke and sunlit citrus in a fragrance that feels like clean skin warmed by a gentle campfire, sparkling with bergamot and lemon, brushed with juniper and pepper, then surrounded by tranquil incense and pine over creamy sandalwood, vanilla, and amber. Effortlessly sheer yet present, it wears with luminous clarity and a relaxed elegance that suits everyday signatures and quiet luxury wardrobes alike.

Story and Positioning
A modern portrait of wanderlust, Gypsy Water contrasts sparkling citrus and juniper with incense cooled by pine, settling into soft sandalwood and vanilla for a clean skin aura. It stands as one of the brand’s most loved icons, ideal for year-round wear and easy layering. If you enjoy refined sandalwood and hushed incense in the spirit of Diptyque Tam Dao, Le Labo Santal 33, or D S and Durga Radio Bombay, this lands in a beautifully gentle space for day to evening.
Bottle and Design
Gypsy Water sits in Byredo’s rounded cylinder of clear, luminous glass that feels cool and substantial without looking heavy. A matte white label with spare black lettering keeps the face quiet and balanced, letting the name stand center stage. The shoulders flow seamlessly into a short, tidy stem, while a deep black domed cap with a mirror smooth finish settles flush and true. A broad, polished heel gives a low center of gravity so the bottle stands confidently on the vanity. The atomizer releases a fine, even cloud that lands soft and controlled. The presentation arrives in a textured white carton with crisp typographic detailing and a tailored inner tray, delivering a clean, gallery-like reveal.
