Rouge Chaotique in detail
Byredo, the house founded in Stockholm by Ben Gorham, places Rouge Chaotique in Night Veils, its range of extraits de parfum. Its name promises contrasts; the house does not publish its family, and Volute classes it among amber fragrances.
The official pyramid opens with bergamot, tangy blackcurrant and leathery saffron. The heart gathers juicy, dark plum and gourmand praline. The base pairs dry papyrus, patchouli and woody, animalic oud.
Rouge Chaotique is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter. Fruit and praline soften the oud and saffron, for an amber fragrance that is both dark and gourmand; it suits a dinner or a night out, and will appeal to those who like fruity ouds.
Three amber fragrances in our catalogue share some of its materials: Accord Oud, from the same house, and Red Tobacco by Mancera bring together saffron, oud and patchouli; Althaïr Exclusif by Parfums de Marly pairs bergamot, saffron and praline.
