What does Bujairami Aftershock smell like?
Aldehydes give the opening a fizzing, soapy-bright lift, a fresh effervescence that comes from synthetic molecules rather than from any plant. Black pepper is sharp and woody, and bergamot adds the bitter-citrus line. Elemi is a resin from tropical trees with a clean, lemony and slightly piney character, which keeps the top crisp.
Cinnamon is the warm, sweet and slightly hot spice of bark, here paired with pepper again in the heart, so the spice runs through both tiers. Lavender is herbal and camphor-clean, and it smooths the spice into something less sharp. The heart therefore reads as spiced and herbal at once.
The base is leather, musk, ambrette and labdanum. Leather is an accord of smoky, animalic and dry materials that suggests the scent of new hide. Ambrette and musk make a soft, skin-like layer, and labdanum adds a resinous, amber warmth that holds the spice in place.
