About Oboro
Oboro by Byredo: A New Woody-Spicy Perfume
Oboro is Byredo’s new launch, a woody-spicy fragrance made for men and women. It arrives in 2026 with perfumer Jérôme Epinette behind the composition.
Top notes mix bergamot, ginger and black pepper. Violet leaves, mineral notes and peony make up the heart, while incense, vetiver, amber and salt form a warm, gently smoky base.
Byredo presents Oboro as a fresh unisex chapter in its fragrance collection. The composition belongs to the woody-spicy olfactory family and balances freshness with a deeper, more resinous character. Jérôme Epinette is the nose behind the scent.
The opening is lively and luminous: bergamot gives a citrus gleam, ginger adds a punchy warmth and black pepper brings an aromatic bite. The heart then shifts towards violet leaves, mineral notes and peony, which create a softer, cooler texture.
Incense and vetiver anchor the base with smoky, earthy tones. Amber supplies a gentle warmth and salt lends a mineral, faintly aquatic quality. Together, these contrasting elements keep the fragrance intriguing from start to finish.
The listed accords point to a fresh-spicy scent with amber, ozonic, citrus, aquatic, mineral, aromatic, smoky and woody dimensions. This broad range makes Oboro easy to wear across different settings and throughout the year.
Initial reviews give Oboro a score of 4.36 out of 5, based on 25 ratings. Ultimately, how it evolves on the skin will be a personal experience.
This perfume is ideal for those who appreciate woody-spicy unisex scents with a mineral, softly smoky character. It will also appeal to Byredo followers and to anyone who wants a fragrance that starts fresh and dries down to something warm and resinous.
Oboro is a thoughtfully composed woody-spicy fragrance that brings together citrus, spice, mineral tones and a smoky amber finish. It stands as a promising 2026 addition to Byredo’s range for those who enjoy layered, unisex perfumes.
