What do reviewers say about Calypso and Rose Noir?
The geranium opening is the test. Sharp, green, a little bitter, that puts some people off. But if you survive the first twenty minutes, what follows is worth it: a powdery rose softened by suede.Calypso
This is not your grandmother's rose. Byredo stripped away every sweetness, leaving something angular and modern that refuses to play nice. Either you are drawn to its minimalism or you find it hollow.Rose Noir
