## Notes

- top: Bergamot, Black Pepper, Ginger
- heart: Peony, Violet, Mineral Accord
- base: Incense, Vetiver, Salted Amber

## A softer outline

**Oboro** takes its name from the Japanese word for something hazy or indistinct. Byredo translates that idea into a composition where bright spices meet flowers, mineral notes and a warm, salted base.

The opening brings together bergamot, black pepper and ginger. Peony and violet sit beside a mineral accord at the heart; incense, vetiver and salted amber complete the official pyramid. The contrast suggests a fragrance worth approaching for its textures as much as its flowers.

## From mineral to warm

The mineral accord is the intriguing detail here: placed between a spicy opening and a resinous, woody base, it gives the composition a different point of focus. This is an eau de parfum by Jérôme Epinette. Our reading follows the published notes; how long it lasts and how far it carries are questions for skin testing and the MASSO votes below.
