Definitely not a " dupe " for Bal D'Afrique. a sister or imo a cousin..lol... BDA is way more floral, crisp, bright with a hint of citrus and slight soft powder notes... like a beautiful feminine soap...pink woods is not at all like that not really event close. it's lacking all of those qualities and is more flat, stale musky sweet slight floral/ with tiniest hint of wood... but sadly mostly a stale sickly sweet musk. maybe like an old baby wipe. i do think skin chemistry plays an important part in the development but i own both of these and even side by side on paper the difference is still the same. on skin the pink woods lost all of its light floral notes and turned to stale musk. BDA keeps true to as it was when first applied but softens slightly. so.... I don't know how many are saying this is an exact dupe... it's def not. but I can see that they might be considered similar. so far my least favorite from ari... and I like almost every type of fragrance from gourmand to floral, musky to citrusy, woody to watery... no bias.

I have always avoided celebrity fragrances as I thought they’d be juvenile and cheap. Pink woods is sophisticated and complex. I have read some reviews that have said this is more of a light skin scent. It is just the opposite on me with strong silage and beast mode longevity! I can smell it the next day on my clothing! Very, very pretty!

scent doesn’t last long at all and even if it did, it’s not that great to begin with. I have tried Ariana’s other perfumes like Mod and Cloud, you would be much better off getting one from one of those lines! those smell much better and have greater longevity. once the fresh floral scent wears off, which is pretty quick, all I can really smell is alcohol. wondering if I just got a bad batch or if it doesn’t work great with my skin chemistry, because it smelled much better on the sample in store.

This is a super soft and sweet scent. It is very wearable and pleasant, but doesn't overly project. This is a scent to smell good to yourself or a loved one, but not to get compliments from those around you. A person needs to be in your bubble to get a whiff. I originally purchased this as a gift, but now I need to get another one because I decided to keep it for myself. It is youthful and girly, almost as if frolicking in a field. Very charming scent. It is blind buy safe, if you enjoy sweet florals.

Pretty spot on to Bal D’Afrique, slightly less citrusy and has far more longevity and projection. I love it. Can’t beat the price for the amount of perfume you get.

In love with this aroma and feel the vibe having it

Was looking for a new fragrance to add to my collection. I was a bit disappointed as the smell was different. When I tried it the next day will be returning it back for a different Ariana Grande‘s fragrance.

Smells just like bal d'afrique by byredo, but with a better price range. Def getting the full size bottle.

“I had been searching for a new cologne/perfume and came across this one, so I decided to try a sample. I ended up loving it so much that I ordered the full-size bottle. I get so many compliments whenever I wear it—I absolutely love the way it smells.

soft blend of cashmere woods and tonka that feels warm, slightly sweet, and more elevated than her usual fruity profiles, with a smooth, comforting finish that sits beautifully on the skin. Unfortunately, the longevity is almost non-existent—what starts as a promising, cozy scent fades far too quickly, making it hard to justify despite how nice it smells.
