Byredo Eyes Closed Sample
Eyes Closed by Byredo, as a decant
Byredo Eyes Closed is a perfume from the Byredo line-up. We have no note list on record for it, so we describe nothing we cannot back up. A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
Without a pyramid
The notes of Eyes Closed are not in our files. That is not a judgement about the perfume, only about what we can state with certainty. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding.

On request
This sample is listed on request, which means it is not filled yet. Use the form on this page to let us know you would like Eyes Closed, and we note it. Give it time to settle before you judge it. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume.

What you receive
Byredo Eyes Closed comes as 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle. It is labelled by us and not by the brand. Three sizes mean you decide how long you want to test. The smallest size covers a first impression, the largest gives you many wearings.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
With no season on file for Byredo Eyes Closed, the fair test is simply several different days. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. Test it on skin and not only on paper.
Who it is for
Whether Byredo Eyes Closed is marketed to men, women or everyone is not in our record; wear it if you enjoy it. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own. It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag.
Why try Byredo Eyes Closed as a sample first
The same perfume can be a favourite on one person and a miss on the next, which is the whole case for testing Eyes Closed first. FragranceGems fills it from the original bottle and labels it; it is not an official brand sample, and Byredo has no part in it.

Frequently asked
What does the sample look like?
It is a small glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our own label on it. It sprays like a bottle, so you apply Eyes Closed the way you normally would.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Byredo Eyes Closed, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
How do I test Eyes Closed properly?
Spray it on clean skin, do not rub, and check it after a few minutes, at midday and in the evening. Repeat that on a few different days before you decide about a bottle.
The brand
About Byredo
Byredo was founded in Stockholm in 2006 by Ben Gorham and turns memories and emotions into scent: a dance in Africa, a desert flower, a library, a nomadic life. The Eau de Parfums are built on a small library of raw materials, ambrette, sandalwood, violet, vetiver, and most of them stay transparent and close to the skin. That restraint is exactly why a sample helps: on paper they can seem simple, on skin they settle into something personal.
- Founded in Stockholm in 2006 by Ben Gorham
- The Eau de Parfum collection is presented as a library built on ambrette, sandalwood, violet and vetiver
- Minimalist bottles with a magnetic cap; core sizes 50 and 100 ml

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
