    Omg I find rare beauty smells SO much like bal d! I wear it all the time because to my nose it’s almost the exact same! ❤ I got the EDP in a set with the lotion and it smells so good❤

      @@TheScentedwhat did you think of the Rare Beauty Find Comfort EDP? To me it’s so strong and cloying. Smells like a fancy lemon cleaner mixed with a vetiver-heavy cologne.

    I love Bal d'afrique! but i tried a sample of VVD from the scented on a whim and omg its beautiful. So close but yes a little more of citrus .. I even like it a bit more because the citrus sticks around and I don't find it cheap smelling at all!

    If you can, give Noa from Cacharel a sniff. Gave me total Bal D'Afrique vibes and is such a nice cheapie.

    The Ceremonia Perfume de la Tierra EDP smells like a spicy peachy version of Pink Woods so I’m curious how that would compare to Bal D’Afrique.

  • @BGalwah1

    I bought pink woods for my son’s gf and snuck a couple of sprays. I first thought I loved it but the cotton candy note in the dry down was too much. It does smell like the rare beauty fragrance. I don’t have bal d’afrique to compare it to that though.

      You’re right! Miu Miu Twist is similar, I've mentioned it in the past and just totally forgot to include it this time! 🙈

    I know you’ve highly recommended the Vibrant Vetiver & Gold Gem.
    Vibrant vetiver is more citrusy you said, but what is a little different in gold gem? :)
    I’m working on finishing my tube from OP (you said it wasn’t as close), so I’m getting ready to purchase
    Thank you!

    Love Notes by Ariana Grande is sub categorised into 4 different scents, to different parts of the world. Pink Woods is only available in North America. I'm in Australia and can't get my hands on it. Ulta and Sephora US don't ship here. We have Pressed Petals in Australia.
    UK has Vanilla Suede and Germany has Angels Kiss. All different scents.
