Bal D'Afrique Body Lotion 225 ml

“Bal d'Afrique is one of my first perfumes. When it was formulated, I was obsessed with the idea of transposing memories into a perfume and, at the same time, including an imaginary component. My father lived and traveled in Africa for about 10-15 years. I had read his diaries, discovering the way he traveled on merchant ships, meeting all kinds of people… So, I imagined arriving in Africa through someone else's words. Bal d’Afrique reflects all this: it is an imaginary journey, as well as a total celebration of my vision of African culture and its influence.”

 

Focused on beauty and fantasy, BAL D'AFRIQUE is Ben Gorham's “love letter” to Africa, summarizing and celebrating the impact and influence of Africa over time and, in particular, the way which its countless cultures have shaped dance, art and music, the idea of an imaginary event.
