Amazing Bal d'Afrique clone with better longevity than the original! I picked this one up as a blind buy out of curiosity, as I love discovering high-quality dupes, and Echelon Soleil blew me away.
Right from the first spray, you get a juicy, fresh burst of blackcurrant, bergamot, and lemon, which quickly settles into a lovely floral heart of white flowers, jasmine, and violet. The dry-down brings out that signature woody and aromatic base. Profile-wise, it hits the spirit of Byredo's Bal d'Afrique at about 90%—the opening is slightly fruitier thanks to the blackcurrant, but once it settles, the scent trail is almost indistinguishable.
What impressed me the most, though, is the performance. The original Byredo usually fades on my skin after about 4 hours, but Echelon Soleil easily lasts 7 hours on skin and stays on clothes until the next day. The projection is spot on—it creates a remarkably pleasant, clean, and sophisticated scent bubble around you without being overwhelming.
At this price point, it's a total no-brainer for spring and summer days. If you enjoy that vibe of luxury soap, sunshine, and creamy cleanliness, don't hesitate. Definitely not my last bottle!
Great! Great! Great! Very airy compliment magnet.
The best clone of Bal D'Afrique, better than Belgravia in my opinion : the start is really smooth and not harsh, a good surprise !
Sehr schöner Duft, der anfangs in der Luft wie Bacarat rouge riecht. Nach 5 minuten wird er schln cremig und das bleibt für den restlichen Duftverlauf so. Der Duft erinnert mich sehr stark an Bal’d Afrique von Byredo. Silage ist sehr laut die ersten 3 stunden, danach wird er ruhiger aber dennoch präsent. Haltbarkeit liegt auf meiner Haut bei ca. 9,5 stunden. Preisleistung ist überragend.
Buenísimo perfume

Excellent clone de Bal d’Afrique absolu. Très très proche avec une tenue et une projection un peu meilleures. J’ai pu comparer les deux sur chacun de mes bras simultanément.
Ruikt super, beter dan ik had verwacht. Heb de originele Byredo niet geroken, maar deze ruikt alleen al 100x beter dan de originele Bal d'Afrique!
Mostly begamot on me, with citrus sitting underneath. 6/7 hours on me, fine by me.
does the job. 3 sprays is enough. reminds me a lot of a well known designer one, just affordable.
terceira encomenda aqui. aguenta o dia de trabalho todo.
l-am luat cadou și a picat bine. de la început, citrice în prim-plan. comandă fără probleme.
Perfecte geurtje voor alle gelegenheden!
Best alternative to Bad D‘Afrique 👍🏼
Fast delivery as allways
tonkaböna sitter kvar längst. fick komplimanger två gånger på jobbet. 10/10
Doftar väldigt gott jag är supernöjd
Allt toppen
Perfect
Denk een van de lekkerste geuren in mn collectie
blind gekocht op basis van de beschrijving. Levering was prima, maar de geur is voor mij te scherp in de opening. Vragen per mail werden dezelfde dag beantwoord
my brother put me onto it. lasts the whole day at work. quick delivery and well packed.
prvo sam probao uzorak. dostava je bila uredna, ali otvaranje mi je preoštro.
ce l'vaevo in lista da mesi. fava tonka in quantità, forse troppo, ma a me piace. regge tutta la giornata di lavoro. ordine senza problemi. compratelo.
Concepts Echelon Soleil é melhor do que eu esperava. nota-se frutos vermelhos logo ao início. no casaco sinto no dia seguinte.
meine freundin mag ihn auch, einfach kaufen
håller hela arbetsdagen. levererad på 3 dagar
perfect
6/7 hours on me, fine by me. just buy it.
