Bal d'Afrique Absolu de Parfum is an intense and addictive reinterpretation of the famous Byredo signature jus.

Born from Ben Gorham 's personal connection with the African continent, this perfume is a poetic tribute to its cultural energy, its dances, its art, and its music. In this Absolu version, the iconic contrast between luminous freshness and sensual depth is amplified in a gourmand, denser, more enveloping composition.
The top notes-bergamot, lemon, and blackcurrant-vibrate like a hymn to vitality, then merge in the heart with elegant, sensual accents of praline, violet, and delicate musks.
To close, an intense and lasting trail of vetiver, cedar and warm black amber impart character and persistence.

The bottle is a celebration of savoir-faire: the cap, inspired by the Japanese Yakisugi technique, evokes transformation and strength, while the transparent glass reveals the visual depth of the fragrance.
An essential yet refined design, designed for those who experience perfume as an art form.
