Pulp vs Angel

Byredo Pulp is a highly polarizing fragrance that delivers on uniqueness with its fermented, overripe fruit profile balanced by bitter stone fruit and green notes. While admirers praise its sophisticated complexity and excellent performance, detractors find it off-putting and describe it as smelling like rotting or spoiled fruit. Most agree it's a bold, intense fragrance that absolutely requires sampling before purchase.

Angel is a polarizing fragrance with a devoted following for its original formula, but the current reformulation disappoints many fans. While some appreciate the sweeter variants like Angel Nova, others find the modern version overly peppery, harsh, and patchouli-forward compared to the beloved original.
