It opens on a bright, boozy citrus-and-marigold accord, moves through violet and jasmine, and settles into a soft, musky amber-cedarwood base. This listing is the tester version: the identical juice, sold at a lower price because the packaging is plain or unboxed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eScent Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCitrus: 25%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFloral: 25%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWoody: 17%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen \/ Herbal: 17%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmber: 8%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMusky: 8%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTranslation:\u003c\/strong\u003e a boozy, marigold-tinged citrus that softens into violet and a musky amber-wood base, unisex, understated, and close to the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance Pyramid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bergamot, Lemon, Neroli, African Marigold (Tagetes), Buchu\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeart:\u003c\/strong\u003e Violet, Jasmine, Cyclamen\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Amber, Musk, Vetiver, Moroccan Cedarwood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerformance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBal d'Afrique is famously light for its price, reviewer consensus puts longevity around 4–6 hours with soft sillage that reads as a close-to-skin scent within an hour or two.
