Night Veils: The Ritual of the Night
"I believe the night is something special, it opens up another world of possibilities; another version of who we are, a nocturnal feeling of duality. From the nocturnal blossom to the animals, there is a whole part of nature that lives at night - how can we be exempt from this? I know that after nightfall I have a completely different way of thinking; which is very emotional. It is almost a different life, and I wanted to create something to mark the beginning of the evening, a new nocturnal ritual that sounds like a gong when this life of twilight begins". Ben Gorham, creative director and founder of Byredo. The Night Veils reflect the morning ceremony of applying fragrances and are conceived as a counterpart to the ritual of the night. Their application signals the beginning of the evening and the embrace of another, nocturnal life. Like flowers that release their beguiling fragrance only at dusk, with more lush, richer and rounder notes, these penetrating fragrance concentrates of the purest and most precious ingredients envelop the wearer with an intense yet intimate scent. Using an ancient, luxurious and refined perfumery tradition that works closer to the skin and with the radiance of body heat, a small amount of Extrait de Parfum lasts for many hours and bonds more deeply with the wearer. Whether worn in the evening for a special occasion or simply in bed, the Night Veils offer deep olfactory stimulation, inspiring and reflecting a nocturnal world of fantasy, memory and desire.
