The slow dance: A rites-of-passage moment for both girls and boys before they metamorphose into women and men.
A feeling of exhilaration tempered by awkwardness, a heady collision of innocence and experience, not knowing and knowing, felt across countries, cultures and time. Slow Dance mixes ideas of the feminine and masculine, bitter and sweet, in a rich, intoxicating distillation redolent of warm skin and breathless exchange. Here (high school) clichés mingle and become something more; at once familiar and iconoclastic, the ancient perfumer’s arsenal is made modern and a new.
Swedish brand Byredo is known for its fragrances, however it has also expanded to makeup and bath and body products over the years. The brand’s story started when founder Ben Gorham had a chance meeting with perfumer Pierre Wulff. It inspired Gorham to start creating perfumes. As an outsider in the fragrance world with a fine arts degree he brought a fresh perspective; one where compositions are inspired by emotions. This allows him to make timeless products that are meaningful and inspirational to people and their lives. Fragrances Gypsy Water, Bibliotheque, Mojave Ghost and Oud Immortel have been on everyone’s minds (and wrists) ever since their release. They are also available as hand creams, candles, body wash and hair perfume so you can weave their unforgettable magic into your everyday life. In the makeup realm, the brand has created nourishing designer lipsticks, mascaras, eyeshadows, and eyeliners to allow your natural beauty and uniqueness to shine through while allowing experimentation.
