Fresh agreement leather and light wood with a spicy bouquet, cinnamon, saffron, united by an agreement of black plum

 The inspiration for this fragrance based on vetiver was Paris in the late twenties, because of its affinity for African art and culture and its enthusiasm for African music and dance. Gorham wanted to create an interpretation of a warm and romantic vetiver, a mix of Parisian modernity and African culture. A dynamic and unique fragrance in its expression and declaration that reflects the euphoria and the excessive lifestyle if the time in all its intensity. 

Bal d'Afrique is a fragrance on vetiver unusual and atypical. The head notes, citrusy and unknown, lead to a heart very nice and flattering that extends into deeper base notes. An airy spicy, aromatic and indefinable in harmony with floral notes supported by a little woody and amber heat accompanied by a subtle, sweet and smoky vetiver. Bal d'Afrique is an aura rather than a perfume that deepens and balances exotic promises and familiarity in really exceptional way.

"The artist is a seer, one who goes beyond sensations and appearances, often is not understood by others..." Charles Baudelaire was certainly an artist: his contempt for society and for people, his passion for meditation or, perhaps, loneliness, led him to be the character he was: gloomy, austere, often depicted with a book in hand, cigar or pipe in mouth, sitting in a room with little, very little light. Imagine to be in that room now, with very little light, he is not there, we are lucky: if he was here he would have probably chased us away in a badly way, perhaps with a couple of curses in tow. We raise our eyes and see nothing, everything is covered by this disturbing darkness. We are looking for something, do not know what. Here it is, it is a black leather armchair, old and worn, but somehow elegant. We touch it and look for his scent, here it is, we feel it, it is intriguing, engaging and ethereal at the same time. We acknowledge it, it is the one that the writer has described in "Les Fleurs du Mal." We recognize the top notes of juniper berries and black pepper, then the incense and leather and finally the papyrus, patchouli and black amber. Here it is that "..lazy island to which nature has provided bizarre trees and tasty fruit, men with thin and vigorous limbs, women with the gaze of a miserable courage..." Here it is, enclosed in a perfume, the picture told in that masterpiece of literature. That's the genius of Ben Gorham that with Baudelaire crown the success of Byredo." Composition: juniper berries, black pepper, caraway, frankincense, hyacinth, leather, papyrus, patchouli, amber black.

"The idea of Blanche is, as the name suggests, built around my perception of white. For the first time I really made a fragrance with a specific person in mind. I wanted to capture her innocent and spotless aspect, with a fragrance almost transparent in nature. Blanche is also an appreciation for classic beauty.  The fragrance is pure and simple in its structure but great in character." - BG  Gorham sees Blanche as the beginning of the day when the sunlight fills the still cool morning air, permeating its way into the room through the curtains of light linen and leaving light strips on wooden floorboards. The soft diffused sunlight caresses "hes" white shoulder, touching her cheek and illuminating hes silhouette. From afar, you can hear the laughter of children from another room. A new day begins and every opportunity is opening before us.  A romantic description for a romantic scent.  Blanche is the gloss purity, a fragrance like newly washed linen sheets, stretched and dried by the sun of early morning.  Blanche is a perfume essential for those who love this kind of fragrance  Top notes: white rose, pink pepper and aldehyde  Middle notes: violet, neroli, peony  Base notes: blond wood, sandalwood and musk.

Originally a place for picnics outside of Mumbai, Chembur is the place where Ben Gorham's mother was born and grew up. Ben often visited the place as a child. After 15 years, he returned there to discover that this was completely changed and evolved. Only one thing remained unchanged, the smell from a nearby Hindu temple that floated gently to the landscape. The mild, spicy aroma filled the air, awakening childhood memories of Ben at home and with family. Sweet incense accompanied by spicy nutmeg, hot and smoky resin, fruity ginger, amber and a hint of fresh citrus.  A warm and relaxing fragrance for moments of contemplation.  Top notes: Bergamot, Lemon, Elemi  Heart Note: Ginger, Incense of the Temple, Nutmeg  Base notes: Labdanum, Amber, Musk
