What does Bujairami 10/10 smell like?
The top of 10/10 opens on truffle, blackcurrant, bergamot, mandarin and Amalfi lemon, with gardenia, jasmine and ylang-ylang carrying the floral side from the start. Truffle in perfumery is usually rendered as a damp, earthy, mushroom-like facet, and it is often paired with fruit, so the blackcurrant sits beside it as a juicy counterweight. The citrus adds a bright edge that keeps the floral top from feeling heavy.
The heart is the most floral part of the pyramid. Orchid, gardenia, jasmine, ylang-ylang and lotus form a white-petal bouquet, while spices and fruity notes add a little warmth and sweetness. Ylang-ylang is a rich, creamy flower and jasmine is a dense, indolic one, so together with orchid they give the middle a full and slightly animalic floralness.
The base is a set of resins and woods: patchouli, sandalwood, vetiver, incense and amber, softened by vanilla and white musk. Mexican chocolate adds a cocoa-and-spice dryness, and the earthy patchouli links the base back to the truffle at the top. Vetiver stays grassy and smoky in the background.

Bujairami 10/10 next to similar scents
Both lists open on truffle, gardenia and blackcurrant, and both carry ylang-ylang and orchid, lotus in the heart, and chocolate, vanilla, incense and sandalwood in the base. From this side, 10/10 adds patchouli, vetiver, amber and white musk to that core, and it also lists bergamot, mandarin and spices, which the other list does not name.
Cold Crush has the shorter list: bergamot and mandarin at the top, then orange flower absolute, rose and jasmine grandiflorum in the heart, and amber with musk at the base. Bujairami 10/10 shares jasmine, bergamot and mandarin with it. From this side the scent is more of a gardenia and truffle story, and its base adds chocolate, patchouli and incense that the other list lacks.
Oud Money has a short list, with spices alone at the top, oud and sandalwood in the heart, and amber, tonka bean, vanilla and vetiver at the base. The three shared notes are spices, vanilla and amber. Oud and tonka bean have no counterpart in Bujairami 10/10, which leans on truffle, gardenia and chocolate instead.
