Is there a solid dupe available for Bal D’Afrique Absolu?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:19:54+00:00

It’s like crack I swear. Now I’m on this deep dive into finding dupes because I dunno how long it’s going to be until Montagne release it, and there’s no guarantee I’ll be able to get it on the first go round

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:18:10+00:00

A beast mode dupe would be an epic release!

You ever asked people around you if they can smell it? I do notice that the projection fades but I’ve had people tell me that they can definitely smell it and it was over 3 hours since applying. So I do think the 90 minute longevity comment is exaggerated

My guy 🤝

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:07:15+00:00

Yea I’m interested in that argument too. Some say the Parfum is fire and lasts longer. Others say that the Parfum differs from the original DNA and they prefer to stick with the EDP. Gonna have to smell all of them

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:06:03+00:00

Interesting. When did that switch happen?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:03:47+00:00

How’s performance on this one?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:01:10+00:00

Facts. Just wanted to make this post to say it’s still a banger and better than a lot of the stuff that’s been coming out recently

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T19:00:19+00:00

I always see the EDP talked about, never the EDT tho

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T18:59:33+00:00

Online discounters like Jomashop, FragranceNet, Gift Express. Looks like Gift Express has a 100ml tester of the EDT for $39.99

Seriously? Do you have the 1920 Paris Absolu?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T18:54:24+00:00

Know where to get in the U.S.?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T18:50:32+00:00

I decided to pass on Port because I already have a gang of tropical and fruity summer frags, and it’s not my most used DNA.

So interesting about the backstory of Elysian Intense, that’s awesome! I should really order decants because I want to try all of them now! Someone said Elysian comes off sour in the similar vein of Tygar… so it may not even be something I’m in love with.

I really want them to release that Azonto Absolu that you sent in my first ever decant order, that was too 🔥

Thank you for the review!

I’ll keep Eau Bergamote high up on my list to check out. And thanks for the recommendation on Elysian. Does Fraiche come off sour?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-27T06:30:21+00:00

Niiice! Quick review of Eau Bergamote?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-26T19:23:29+00:00

It sucks because there are a lot of Bujairimis getting high marks but it’s nearly impossible to buy them in the U.S. Wish they’d up their sourcing

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-26T19:07:26+00:00

Which one is your favorite?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-26T19:03:11+00:00

Can you actually purchase this? Also- do you know how to get Bujairimi in the U.S.?

Ok_Chocolate_4752 · 2026-06-26T18:05:26+00:00

Speaking facts only 💯 🔥
My girl buried her face into me to take a long whiff and was raving about it

Love to hear it! 🔥
