What do reviewers say about Bal d'Afrique Hair Perfume and Santal 33?
This is the fragrance for people who don't need the room to know they've arrived. The hair perfume format keeps it intimate, moderate sillage, warm from the first spray to the drydown hours later.Bal d'Afrique Hair Perfume
This fragrance is less a perfume and more an atmospheric event. The sandalwood is the anchor but the leather and papyrus make it interesting. Not everyone will appreciate the slightly feral quality.Santal 33
