My Afrika
by Krizia
My Afrika by Krizia is a bright, sparkling fragrance centered around ginger and lemon, delivering a playful, citrusy burst that feels reminiscent of ginger ale or a sweet citrus lollipop. The initial profile is marked by a prominent ginger note, combined with zesty lemon and a touch of orange-like sweetness, creating a cheerful and fun character. Over time, it transitions into a lighter, ambery-woody base with warm amber and earthy wood tones, though the scent fades quickly after the first hour, leaving only a subtle trail. The overall impression is one of joy and simplicity, ideal for daytime wear during summer months, where its sweet and zingy profile stands out without pretension.
