The Byredo 1996 Inez & Vinoodh perfume was created by the Swedish-French brand Byredo quite some time ago, encapsulating a remarkable story within. The fragrance was developed by the owner of the perfume house, Ben Gorham. The impetus for the creation of this perfume was the desire to find an exquisite Christmas gift for the renowned photographer couple, Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. One of the couple's famous photographs captured a model whose lips were painted in a vivid burgundy lipstick, with a face of noble porcelain hue expressing pure innocent naivety.
Ben Gorham found the photograph of the model so compelling that he decided to encapsulate the image depicted in the photo into the new fragrance. This scented water's aroma is not targeted solely at one gender; it stands as an example of a unisex perfume. Byredo 1996 Inez & Vinoodh is an interesting variety of oriental-spicy notes. Such spices, combined with the playful scent of juniper berries, will appeal to both men and women. Perhaps, you too will want to touch upon this fascinating story of an unusual gift.
