Our Alto Astral Fragrance Oil is 98% close to the original Alto Astral perfume launched by the Byredo brand in 2024. It has the same notes as are present in the original scent profile. Top notes are Cardamom and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Labdanum and Geranium; base notes are Oud, Guaiac Wood, and Amber. This oil formulation achieves a high molecular density, ensuring the heavier base fixatives are preserved without the oxidative degradation often found in ethanol-based delivery systems.
Fragrance Notes
- Top Notes: Cardamom, Mandarin Orange
- Heart Notes: Labdanum, Geranium
- Base Notes: Oud, Guaiac Wood, Amber
How It Performs
This fragrance oil exhibits a controlled volatility rate. Unlike EDP sprays that suffer from a rapid alcohol-driven flash-off, this oil maintains a 10 to 12-hour lifespan on the dermis. The sillage is moderate but consistent, creating a 2-foot scent radius that persists through the dry-down phase due to the high concentration of resinous compounds and woody aroma chemicals.
Best Times to Wear
The chemical stability of the Oud and Amber accords makes this ideal for temperatures between 10°C and 22°C. It is optimized for evening wear and formal environments where a persistent, non-intrusive olfactory presence is required. The lack of alcohol makes it suitable for sensitive skin during dry winter months.
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 12+ hour skin persistence | Reduced initial projection distance |
| No synthetic alcohol spike | Takes 5 minutes to fully warm on skin |
| Linear scent development | Heavier texture on application site |
How It Compares
The primary technical difference lies in the evaporation curve. The original EDP utilizes alcohol to force a high-diffusion opening, which often causes the top notes to dissipate within 30 minutes. Our oil version stabilizes the Cardamom and Mandarin, allowing them to bridge into the Labdanum heart for a more seamless transition. The 98% match is achieved through gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis, ensuring the molecular weight of the Oud accord mirrors the original.
What Customers Say
“The longevity is objectively superior to the spray; I can still detect the Guaiac wood after a full workday.”
“It lacks the sharp ‘sting’ of the original opening, but the dry-down is indistinguishable and much smoother.”
Any Questions?
Is this oil safe for direct skin application?
Yes, it is formulated at a skin-safe concentration following IFRA guidelines. We recommend a patch test for those with hypersensitivity to Oud oils.
How should I apply this for maximum sillage?
Apply to pulse points where body heat is highest (wrists and neck) to assist in the kinetic energy required for molecular diffusion.
What is the price in local currency?
Our premium 10ml concentrated oil is priced at Rs. 2,450.
