When Ben Gorham established his own fragrance house in 2006, the former professional basketball player and art school graduate chose a portmanteau of 'by redolent' – Old English for 'aromatic' – as his business' triple-syllable name.

Suffice to say, Gorham has a penchant for names or esoteric origin and inspiration: Byredo has launched poetically named scents including Rose of No Man's Land, Velvet Haze and the carrot, rose and sandalwood eau de parfum Seven Veils.
