Bal d'Afrique

Buchu leaf opens sharp and herbaceous, dusted with marigold's papery warmth, while bergamot adds bright citric snap. Violet and cyclamen emerge in the heart, their powdery sweetness cutting against the green bite underneath. As it settles, vetiver rises—earthy, slightly smoky—anchored by dry cedar that leans almost woody-cool. The flowers fade to shadow, leaving only the mineral green of vetiver and a subtle wood grain on skin.
