A Wren Says

I discreetly pulled out the white metal tube from my pouch and started moisturizing my hands. “ Wow, you smell good,” says the stranger. I was taken aback, because I was trying to go unnoticed. “Thanks, it’s just my hand cream.” “Well, it smells good.”

The small tube of Byredo’s De Los Santos hand cream has been a skin saver in my bag. It leaves my hands moisturized, but it is also now my most complimented fragrance.

The smell is undeniably woody and calming. The fragrance carries into the air and boldly declares itself. The scent is strong, but not offensive. Based on the number of compliments I get, people enjoy it the smell.

Of course, I use it whenever I need to soothe dry hands. However, because of the projection of the scent, it can boost or overpower the perfume or cologne you’re wearing for the day. I could see myself going overboard and buying the accompanying hand or body cream for each of my fragrances. If I like it that much, why not put it on my hands, too?

Unfortunately for me, I’ve never tried the parfum version of this scent. Now, I want to. I also want to try the rest of the hand creams and body care that Byredo has to offer.

As for you, if you are looking for a fragranced but effective hand cream and you like woodier scents, you should definitely try this. But be sure to check all they have to offer.
