Byredo Bibliotheque Eau de Parfum (tester with cap)

Thousands of books, neatly arranged on endless rows of shelves, hold valuable knowledge within. Fairy tales, stories, scientific hypotheses, philosophical reflections, passion, despair, love, technology, battles—all of these are captured on paper pages with inked lines. In the silence, under the glow of desk lamps, a remarkable scent lingers—sweet, woody, and earthy, familiar to many avid readers. This is the scent of stories, of creativity, and human thoughts.

The initial note of Byredo Bibliotheque fragrance exudes the richness of enticing plum paired with the honeyed sweetness of ripe peach. The heart of the perfume plays with the herbal nuances of watery violet and the powdery undertones of delicate peony. The final melody resonates with mesmerizing vanilla, accented by sensual leather tones and the balsamic overtones of patchouli.

TESTER is a demonstration version of the fragrance that the manufacturer includes with a batch of products for promotional purposes at the point of sale. Please note that there are no differences in fragrance quality or longevity between a tester and the retail version! The only distinction is that, since testers are produced for advertising purposes, the manufacturer does not pay much attention to their packaging: they are supplied in what is known as technical packaging (a simple cardboard box, which differs from the one used for retail bottles) and often come without a cap. Therefore, testers are priced lower.
