This fragrance appears to be very popular for awhile now and I never understood the hype, as the notes did not sound like something I would usually try. But a few weeks ago I randomly tried some of the Byredo perfumes at the airport and the only one I liked, besides Gypsy Water, was Bal d'Afrique. The notes blend so well, so it creates this beautiful citrus/woody/floral scent. Very enchanting and I kept sniffing my arm. I see that this can be a safe blind buy but it might also smell different depending on how the notes work with the own chemistry.

Edit: After purchasing a travelsize and trying it again, I feel it is best testing a few times, as it smells different to me now as it used to upon first try. The aromatic and citrus notes are more prominent and I get hints of tea. Overall a scent that is pretty, but might not be for me and my preferance in the long run.

Smells like buttered popcorn. Not good.

I’m feeling so good when I wear this!
