African Art - 1863

I have no doubt that it's a spot on clone, the quality is good, it's just the type of thing I'd have to really be in the mood for. It's a bit too unisex and herbal for me but if clean girl aesthetic is your thing I can see why people would like it. I just don't get the hype around this perfume but I'm glad I could find out without dropping Byredo money, especially when their perfumes perform terribly.

It's gorgeous I would say more féminine 😊 safe blind buy.

I don’t like green fragrances typically, but this is much more than a typical green fragrance. The fresh and earthy notes are unique. I’ve never smelt anything like it before. If you try it, you’ll realise how fitting the name is

perfect

Bal D'Afrique is absolutely beautiful but I just can't justify spending that amount of money (and not sure how they can justify asking it to be honest).
I still had a sample of the original to test this against and while it's not exactly the same it is very close.
The original is smoother and a touch sweeter/creamier to my nose. While the PP version has something very slightly smokey about it in the opening. On the dry down they are extremely similar.
I would say the PP version is even more unisex due to that hint of smoke. I layer it with PP Molecule 01 to boost the woody undertone and it's gorgeous.
