    I happen to be a lover of sweet smelling fragrances but this I couldn't take. The ripe fruit aroma was "off". I do agree with the poster below, that the fruit is "rotten". It's a shame because that was the only thing wrong with it.

    Pulp is one of those holy grail scents for all fruit lovers out there. The name couldn't be more fitting as it really smells like juicy, ripe fruit flesh.

    The opening is mainly a HUGE fig note combined with some tartness from bergamot and what I'd call grapefruit. It remains rather linear in its drydown though, the fig is there to stay, although the apples and spiciness from cardamom becomes more evident.

    It also deserves to be mentioned that it has amazing longevity and is a sillage monster. Which always is a good thing in my book.

    Pulp is an unusual concept, but created with some panache. A fruit flesh compote, initially drizzled with sharp bergamot juice, and latterly bedecked with sweet and engaging florals. Beyond the opening, a waxy red apple note clambers to the peak of Pulp, and crows with gusto for several hours. Overall, the journey is a fairly brief one, but it rarely fails to entertain. For its pioneering spirit I mark it highly, but I have slight reservations about its wearability.

    So thick yet light it confused the hell out of me. Later on I found this to be a pleasnt blended mix of fruits, florals and green notes. I think the whole concept behind the fragrance from the name to the images it conveyed to me when smelled is well executed. The apple note in particular is open and delightful and is softened by a very light peach/pear like accord; probably the peach flower in the base (a floral base?). I find this refreshing, elegant and high quality. Byredo's fragrances are EdP's so I expected something lush and I got it. Bravo! Looking forward to seeking out more from this line.

    The hype is totally well-deserved for maybe twenty minutes, where Pulp really is as juicy and, um, pulpy as the ad copy says. But it peters off swiftly after that, having a brief tart, passionfruity middle stage that reminded me of MPG Fraiche Passiflore and then becoming vague fruits over musk. It's still very nice, but I don't think it's worth the price they're asking.

    IMHO anybody looking for a niche fruit-bomb would be better off buying Perfect Nectar, which I've found very similar to Pulp, especially in the middle and drydown. Pulp undoubtedly excels in that opening salvo, but that's about it.
