Byredo - Bal D'Afrique Handcream
At its core, Bal d’Afrique is Ben Gorham’s heartfelt ‘love letter’ to Africa. It seeks to encapsulate and honor the profound impact African culture has had across the globe, particularly in shaping the worlds of dance, art, music, and beyond. The fragrance was born out of an aspiration to capture this rich cultural influence in a way that feels timeless and universal. By blending the real-life experiences of his father with his own artistic interpretation, Gorham envisioned a fantasy—an imaginary event where Africa’s cultural essence takes center stage.
Through its intoxicating notes of neroli, African marigold, and Moroccan cedarwood, Bal d’Afrique conveys not just a journey to Africa, but a dreamlike celebration of its beauty, spirit, and global resonance. This fragrance tells a story that transcends borders, blending memory, fantasy, and admiration into a sensory homage to a continent that continues to inspire the world.
Fragrance Notes:
- Top Notes: African Marigold, Bergamot, Buchu
- Heart Notes (Middle): Cyclamen, Violet
- Base Notes: Moroccan Cedarwood, Vetiver
