Byredo decants & perfume samples — your questions answered

Are Byredo decants and perfume samples authentic?

Yes. Scento states that each decant is hand-poured from an original full-sized bottle sourced through authorised European retailers — never a clone, dupe or inspired-by version. Manufacturer batch codes belong to those original bottles and are not printed on Scento decant vials.

How many sprays are in a Byredo sample?

As a rough guide, a perfume atomizer gives about 10–15 sprays per millilitre, so a 2ml Byredo sample is roughly 20–30 sprays, a 5ml about 50–75, and an 8ml about 80–120. Exact counts vary with the atomizer and how heavily you spray. Available sizes: 2ml, 5ml, 8ml, 30ml.

Do I pay customs or VAT on Byredo samples in the EU?

No extra customs for EU orders. Scento ships Byredo decants from within the EU to 27 European markets, so EU buyers pay no import duties or customs charges and usually receive their order in 1–5 business days. Orders to non-EU European countries may be subject to local import VAT set by your country, not by Scento.

Should I buy a Byredo decant or a full bottle?

Buy a decant to test or rotate a scent, and a full bottle once you know you love it. A 2ml decant is only about 2–4% of a 50–100ml bottle, so it lets you wear Byredo for days before committing to full-bottle price. For sealed presentation or gifting, an official boutique or authorised retailer is the better route.

Which Byredo fragrance should I try first?

Bal d'Afrique and Blanche are the Byredo fragrances our members reach for most, so they are the easiest place to start. If you want to explore further, Bal d'Afrique, Blanche, Bal d'Afrique Absolu make a strong first set in affordable decant sizes.
