What does Bujairami Ascension smell like?
The top opens with lavender, rosemary, neroli and petitgrain. Lavender is herbal and slightly sweet, rosemary adds a camphorous, green bite, and neroli, distilled from bitter orange blossom, keeps the opening bright. Petitgrain, made from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree, is greener and drier than the flower, so the top reads as an aromatic, citrus-tinged note.
Galbanum is the sharp, resinous green note in the heart, and it is the most assertive material on the list. Geranium and clary sage soften it with a rosy, nutty, herbal character, while jasmine adds a white floral sweetness that lifts the middle. The heart is greener and more floral than the top, with galbanum giving the whole structure its edge.
The base is a dry, woody group. Oakmoss is earthy and mossy, vetiver adds smoky root, and cedar and sandalwood give a creamy woody frame. Amber rounds the drydown with a warm, resinous softness. The materials move from green and aromatic to woody and mossy, which is the structure behind the fresh, woody and floral reading this guide gives the scent.

Five opens on aldehydes, ylang-ylang, lemon, neroli and bergamot, where Bujairami Ascension opens on lavender, rosemary, neroli and petitgrain. The two share neroli and jasmine. Five's heart is floral and powdery, with iris, rose and orris root, while Ascension's heart is green, built on galbanum and clary sage.
Charmed starts on lemon, peach, ginger, mandarin and lavender, a warmer and fruitier opening than the herbal one of Bujairami Ascension. The two meet in lavender, jasmine and oakmoss. Charmed then moves into vanilla, tonka bean, benzoin and leather in its base, whereas Ascension stays dry and woody, with vetiver, cedar and sandalwood.
Dark Intentions shares the lavender and rosemary that open Bujairami Ascension, but it sets them in another order. Rosemary sits in its top beside bergamot, grapefruit and cardamom, and lavender moves to the heart. Its base is vetiver, moss, musk, patchouli, incense, amber and cedar, a more resinous finish than the galbanum and geranium heart of Ascension.
