Byredo Parfums Gypsy Water EDP
Description
Byredo Gypsy Water is a fresh-woody scent that captures a starry night in the wilderness — crisp juniper and citrus drifting over warm sandalwood, vanilla, and a wisp of incense.
Composed by perfumer Jérôme Epinette for the Stockholm house of Byredo and launched in 2008, Gypsy Water has become one of the brand's most beloved signatures. Reviewers consistently describe it as unlike anything else on the market — an understated, elegant scent that pairs the cool bite of pine and juniper with a soft, comforting drydown. Equally at home on men and women.

Translation: a bright, airy opening of citrus and juniper that settles into a warm, woody base laced with incense and vanilla — outdoorsy and crisp up top, cozy and nostalgic underneath.
Fragrance Pyramid
Top: Juniper, Lemon, Bergamot, Pepper
Heart: Pine Needles, Incense, Orris Root
Base: Vanilla, Sandalwood, Amber
