Top notes are Bergamot, African Marigold and Buchu or Agathosma; middle notes are Violet and Cyclamen; base notes are Vetiver and Cedar. 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.
