Pulp
Pulp by Byredo is an unisex eau de parfum from 2006 in the niche price tier. It opens with blackcurrant, bergamot, fig and cardamom, moves into tiare, peach and pear and dries down to praline, cedarwood and musk. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Fig Green, milky and jammy at once. One of the most interesting fruits in perfume.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Heart
- Tiare Creamy tropical white flower. Suntan lotion, in the best way.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
- Pear Crisp, watery and green-sweet. Clean and modern.
Dry-down
- Praline Caramelised nuts. Sweet, toasty and very moreish.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
