Bal d’Afrique Byredo for women and men

Stockholm-based niche line Byredo introduced a new fragrance named Bal d’Afrique, which is "inspired by Paris in the late 1920's and its infatuation with African culture, art, music, and dance. This mix of Parisian avant-garde and African culture shaped a unique and vibrant expression. The intense life, the excess and euphoria is illustrated by Bal d'Afrique's neroli, African marigold, and Moroccan cedarwood." Top notes include: bergamot, lemon, neroli, African marigold, Bucchu. Middle notes include: violet, jasmine, and cyclamen. The base is composed of black amber, musk, vetiver, and Moroccan cedarwood. The fragrance is available in 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

Gypsy Water Absolu Byredo is a woody fragrance with pronounced spicy nuances, presented as a more concentrated interpretation of the original Gypsy Water theme. The composition opens with a contrast of sparkling bergamot, black pepper and aromatic pine needles. In the heart, creamy orris butter is combined with carrot seed to create an earthy warmth, nuanced by the smoky character of incense absolute. The base rests on ambroxan, vanilla absolute and white suede, forming a soft amber-woody trail that emphasizes both texture and depth.
