DE LOS SANTOS Eau de Parfum
Created in the wake of loss, De Los Santos is a fragrance designed to conjure memories, acknowledge the fleeting, and celebrate life. Paying homage to the traditions of Día de los Muertos and All Saints' Day, it honours the transcendent power of coming together in collective ceremonies, and transforms scent into a new ritual of remembrance.
"Last year I started exploring how other cultures approach the idea of loss to change my personal perspective. I didn't want to 'move on' or 'look ahead' because that meant forgetting. Instead, I wanted to find a way to celebrate my memories, appreciate the beauty of life, and translate that into fragrance." - Ben Gorham, Founder and Creative Director, BYREDO
