Byredo Parfums Alto Astral EDP (Tester)
Description
Byredo Alto Astral takes its name from a Brazilian Portuguese phrase for infectious high spirits and good energy. Composed by perfumer Jérôme Epinette, it opens bright and sparkling on coconut water and aldehydes, then deepens into a warmer, muskier, more lingering base — designed to feel like a mood rather than a heavy statement scent. This listing is the tester version: the identical Byredo-produced juice, sold at a lower price because the packaging is plain or unboxed.
Scent Character
- Fresh / Aquatic — 25%
- Woody — 25%
- Amber / Resinous — 25%
- Floral — 13%
- Musky — 12%
Translation: a bright coconut-water opening that settles into warm musky woods and amber — sparkling at first, cozier by the drydown.

Performance
