Mirroring the morning ceremony of applying scent, perfumes in the Night Veils collection are designed for the ritual of the night. Like flowers that release their headiest scent at twilight, these penetrating concentrates of perfume are made from noble raw materials chosen with meticulous care.

The first oud gourmand fragrance in Byredo's Night Veils collection, Rouge Chaotique takes personal inspiration from Ben Gorham’s belief that accepting the chaos within any creative process can result in singular forms of expression. ​

At the top, a prelude of precious saffron undercuts the fresh juiciness of blackcurrant and bergamot with a tangent of spiced leather. Velvety smooth gourmand notes form the heart, as syrupy sensations of plum and the toasted sweetness of praline transform into an irresistible guilty pleasure. Drawn from one of the world’s most opulent raw materials, the animalic sensuality of oud brings the spectacular finale, blended with patchouli and balanced with the crisp tension of papyrus.​

Distilled into a pure essence, a small amount of Rouge Chaotique works closer to the skin and radiates through the heat of the body, lingering for many hours.
