De Los Santos is a polarizing but ultimately well-regarded Byredo release with strong performance and complex evolution. While the opening is divisive and medicinal, the scent transforms significantly in the dry down, rewarding those who wear it on skin rather than sampling on blotter. Community consensus suggests it's a 'grower' fragrance worth trying despite its premium price.
Strengths
- Excellent longevity and skin performance compared to other Byredo fragrances
- Complex, evolving scent that reveals different notes through the dry down
- Evokes strong emotional responses and memorable desert/earthy imagery
- A 'grower' scent that improves significantly when worn on skin versus blotter
Weaknesses
- Polarizing opening - sharp, medicinal, and off-putting to some on first impression
- Requires proximity to detect after a few hours despite decent longevity
- Expensive price point may not justify performance for some users
