Bright and elegant
Contralto has been compared to Byredo Bal D’Afrique - I agree and would add that Contralto has a bit more complexity and better longevity. There's something compelling about Contralto - bright citrus & juniper, white floral, creaminess, and aromatic woods. I didn't get a lot of development, but it's so good right out of the bottle that it wasn't really a problem.
I haven’t smelled Bal D’Afrique yet. But I bought a decant of Contralto, out of interest in this kind of scent profile and notes. It’s got a burst of citrics at the top and a woody base with great longevity. Projection is terrific. I even may have oversprayed the first time I wore it. I’ll go lighter next time. I’ll buy a full bottle whenever possible, as this is a masterpiece in my opinion. Very enjoyable!!
