The review
African Dance 06 Extracto de scores 6.7 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Bal d'Afrique.
Lorinna Paris sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Bal d'Afrique's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $54 per 100ml it costs 84% less than Bal d'Afrique — the 6th cheapest of 14 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Lorinna Paris publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Byredo Bal d'Afrique is amalfi lemon, african marigold and bergamot at first, violet, cyclamen and jasmine at its heart and vetiver, musk and amber at the end. Lorinna Paris set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
