Byredo Bal d'Afrique Absolu de Parfum

Ben Gorham, the originator, was inspired by his father's experiences travelling and living in Africa to create Bal d'Afrique, which is both an imaginative voyage and a celebration of Africa's rich cultural effect on dance, art, and music. 
This reinvented composition intensifies the gourmand component of Bal d'Afrique by increasing the contrast between brilliant lightness and irresistible depth, resulting in a richer, more addicting experience. Bergamot, lemon, and blackcurrant notes provide a powerful vibrance, melting into the delicacy of praline, musks, and violet before ending on a dramatic base of cedar, vetiver, and heated black amber.
