Byredo Bal d’Afrique Absolu

Bal d'Afrique Absolu by Byredo is a captivating, modern evolution of a classic, debuting as a unisex Floral-Woody-Musk release in 2025. Expertly formulated by master perfumer Jerome Epinette, this rich composition kicks off with a vibrant, tangy burst of blackcurrant, balanced by the bright citrus zest of bergamot and lemon. The scent then deepens into an alluring heart where sweet, decadent praline meets soft violet and a smooth layer of musk. The fragrance leaves a commanding, long-lasting impression with a luxurious base of dark amber, clean cedarwood, and earthy vetiver.
