The Scent

Citrusy Bergamot, Warm Woody, African Roots.

Imaginary Journey opens with bright bergamot and lemon layered with juicy blackcurrant for a fresh, vibrant start. As it develops, praline, violet and soft musk add a smooth sweetness before black amber, cedarwood and vetiver create a warm, woody finish that feels rich, refined and addictive.

Inspired by the iconic Byredo Bal D'Afrique Absolu-style scent profile.
