ALREHAB PERFUMES Africana is an Eau de Parfum. Africana opens with Mandarin and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Iris, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. ALREHAB PERFUMES's Africana carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper marmite fragrance - you'll either love it or hate it, there's no in-between. A real beast of a scent, delivering an unapologetic punch of synthetic sweet fruit that demands attention. Definitely not for the faint of heart or those seeking subtlety.

About

Africana is a dizzying swirl of overripe, syrupy fruit, dominated by a candy-esque sweetness. Imagine fizzy grape or cherry sweets mingling with artificial banana, all underpinned by a thick, powdery iris and a subtle, dark woody base of vetiver and cedar. There's a hint of soft spice throughout, adding to its complex, almost boozy character.
