Mister Marvelous לעומת Bal d'Afrique

Mister Marvelous inspires passionate devotion among those who owned the original, with some considering it their favorite Byredo fragrance. However, the broader r/fragrance community shows mixed views on Byredo as a brand, with some praising quality while others dismiss it as mediocre, making consensus elusive.

Bal d'Afrique is widely praised for its beautiful, unique scent profile with fresh citrus and creamy sweetness, making it an excellent signature fragrance for warm weather. However, the community consensus is tempered by significant concerns about poor longevity and weak projection, which many feel don't justify its premium price, recommending samples before purchase.
