The only thing better than receiving a big, beautiful bouquet of flowers is wearing this rhubarb-, freesia-, and tulip-scented fragrance on a regular basis. While its notes are perfect to wear through the entirety of spring, die-hard floral fans will probably opt to spritz it on all year.

Developed as an olfactory tribute to selflessness and compassion, this scent gets its name from a nickname given by soldiers to WWI nurses. And since Rose of No Man’s Land contains both Turkish rose petals and Turkish rose absolute, you can consider it a tribute to lovers of rose scents, too.

Each Byredo perfume tells a story. Slow Dance’s warm geranium, violet, and patchouli notes aim to bottle the feeling of a rite of passage for girls and boys before moving into adulthood. We recommend layering it with another vanilla-noted fragrance for ultimate sensorial impact.
