Similarity is the owners' vote plus the note overlap. Price is a typical US bottle price when the house publishes one. Bars are each match's own accords.
Where it differs: Vetiver Delight follows the same lemon, blackcurrant, violet and vetiver outline but comes across sweeter and more one-dimensional, and owners say it outlasts Bal d'Afrique at five to seven hours.
Where it differs: Ambery Vetiver swaps the lemon and floral heart for apple, passion fruit and blackcurrant bud over heavier amber, so it reads woodier and fruitier than Bal d'Afrique's citrus sparkle.
Where it differs: A Perfume is a soft, clean floral musk that lacks the bright citrus and vetiver lift of Bal d'Afrique, and some owners find it thin and noticeably synthetic.
Where it differs: Amber Linen shares a juicy sweet citrus opening but lacks the green, woody vetiver side, so it wears more feminine and heavier, and owners report eight to ten hours.
