De Los Santos
Eau de parfum
Clary sage and mirabelle over a palo santo base, in memory of the departed.
De Los Santos draws on two holidays devoted to the dead, Mexico's Día de los Muertos and All Saints' Day. Byredo files it among its aromatic fragrances and intends it for everyone.
Herbaceous clary sage and sweet mirabelle open the composition. Orris and cistus oil form a powdery, resinous heart. The base pairs musks, ambroxan and palo santo, a South American wood burned during ceremonies.

De Los Santos in detail
Byredo, the house founded in Stockholm, often draws on rituals and memories. De Los Santos looks to Mexico's Día de los Muertos and All Saints' Day, two moments for honouring the dead. The house files it among its aromatic fragrances, at medium intensity.
The official pyramid opens with clary sage, herbaceous with an ambery edge, and mirabelle, a small, sweet golden plum. The heart pairs powdery, earthy orris with cistus oil, rendered here as resinous cistus labdanum. The base gathers musks, woody, ambery ambroxan and palo santo, a sacred South American wood with a smoky, lemony scent.
De Los Santos is worn in autumn and winter, by day or in the evening. Its palo santo, rare in our catalogue, adds a touch of burnt wood that suits its theme.
Three aromatic fragrances in our catalogue share one of its materials: Mefisto by Xerjoff brings together orris and musk; Sedley by Parfums de Marly pairs ambroxan and musk; Thé Noir 29 by Le Labo sets its tea notes on a musky base.
