Bibliothèque is described as: "Inspired by the smells of an old library, leather notes are ideally balancedwith a softness of vanilla. Peach and plum give the smell of the candle some sweetness, while leather and vanilla deliver a persistent note, recalling the smell of a book-binding and dusty woody table."
Today Byredo translates the aroma of their famous candle Bibliothèque into Eau de Parfum with the same composition of fruits, flowers, leather and vanilla.
"Bibliothèque transports you into the comfort of a traditional library. The world of a peaceful meditation where time stops and all the senses get sharper. Soft and sweet notes of velvety peach and plum pierce the air, leading to the dry flowery bouquet of peony and violet with musky shades. At the very base of the composition, among the layers of leather and vanilla, a dry patchouli note appears, recalling memories of your favorite arm-chair and shabby pages of the old books under leathery covers."
