Alto Astral
Eau de parfum
An aldehydic coconut water, set on milky musks and sandalwood.
Alto Astral borrows its name from Brazilian Portuguese, where the expression describes a cheerful, optimistic frame of mind. Byredo turns it into a bright fragrance, intended for everyone.
Aldehydes and coconut water open the composition. In the heart, incense and jasmine petals mingle with milky musks; the base gathers sandalwood, cashmere woods and a salted amber.

Alto Astral in detail
Byredo, the Swedish house founded by Ben Gorham, likes to borrow its names from words from elsewhere. Alto Astral takes up a Brazilian Portuguese expression for good spirits: a clear, soft fragrance that Volute classes among musks, as the house publishes no family.
The official pyramid opens with sparkling, soapy aldehydes and watery, barely sweet coconut water. The heart gathers incense, jasmine petals and milky musks. The base pairs creamy sandalwood, cashmere woods and a salted amber.
Alto Astral is worn by day, in spring and summer: on holiday, at the weekend, or whenever you want a luminous skin scent. Its coconut water gives it a soft freshness, without the sun-cream feel of milkier coconuts.
Three musks in our catalogue come close: Accento by Xerjoff shares jasmine, amber and musk; Filthy Musk by Born To Stand Out also brings together musk and jasmine; Cosmic Cloud by Louis Vuitton is built around musk.
