What wearers say
“I fell in love with Bal d’Afrique Absolu and needed something to scratch that itch. This is very nice. It does not remind me of Absolu but is pretty similar to the OG. It’s not a 1:1 but close enough. I find that I can smell it more than the OG which I like. Easy wear especially for summer time.”
“This is a perfect crisp fresh light airy pleasant friendly fragrance. Has just a touch of sweetness to it but not overly done. Fresh white tshirt n jeans, easy to wear, everyday any time anywhere, clean simple. Unisex. Perfect for any weather. Longevity on clothes for this comfortable fall day has been 10 hours and counting.”
“I have Dossier clones that are much closer to the real thing. The real one has stronger florals and citrus and a different more earthy, rooty vetiver has been used in the Dossier which overshadows the rest of the blend at times. I like it but some people will be put off by that vetiver note.”
