As the season shifts from summer to autumn, our scent preferences also change. This week, the Dazed Beauty team is recommending Byredo’s Desert Dawn, a fragrance that evokes the shifting moods of the desert and provides comfort as the weather cools.

Desert Dawn is inspired by the arid oasis, capturing the essence of the desert’s ever-changing environment – from the gusts of sandy winds to the stillness of the night. This fragrance is a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of the approaching colder months.

Unlike Byredo’s iconic scents like Gypsy Water and Mojave Ghost, Desert Dawn features a warm blend of cardamom and rose petals with a base of sandalwood and cedarwood. This combination creates a dry, earthy scent with subtle hints of freshness.

Reviewers describe Desert Dawn as a “warm hug” and a “thoughtful, layered, grounded” fragrance. They compare it to FKA Twigs’ song “Eusexua,” highlighting its subtle beginning and evolving into something deeper and more intense.

Desert Dawn is versatile enough for both crisp autumn mornings and cozy evenings. Its warmth lingers on jackets and scarves, providing a comforting scent throughout the day.
