What does Bujairami Astral smell like?
Pear is the top's soft fruit, juicy and slightly waxy, and green mandarin is a sharper, leafier citrus than the sweet orange-type mandarin. Together they make a fresh, unsweet opening that does not go straight to the flower. The top is two notes only, so the jasmine is the first real floral in the list.
The heart is two jasmines. Jasmine sambac is the rich, slightly fruity jasmine often used in tea and garlands, and Indian jasmine is the more familiar white jasmine of perfumery. Using both gives the heart a fuller, creamier floral centre than either would give alone.
The base is woody and musky. Cashmeran is a synthetic musk with a soft woody warmth, musk gives a clean, skin-like softness, and amberwood and driftwood are woody materials with a dry, slightly ambery character. Those four keep the florals from ending on sweetness, so the drydown is woody rather than powdery.
Who Astral suits
The brand tags Bujairami Astral for her. This guide sorts it under woody and floral, its own reading of the eight notes. It is an eau de parfum, the lighter of the two concentrations, in a single 100 ml size. Two jasmines and a set of woods sit over a clean musk base, which is the structure that puts it on the woody side of the floral family.

How Astral compares with similar scents
Infinite Aura is a fuller, fruitier list. It opens on raspberry and lemon peel, where Bujairami Astral opens on pear and green mandarin, and its jasmine heart is joined by green mandarin and sweet orange. Musk and cashmeran appear in both bases, and Infinite Aura adds vanillin, which Astral does not list.
Queens Goals opens on coconut water and bergamot, and its heart is jasmine with heliotrope, where Bujairami Astral has two jasmines. Both finish on cashmeran, and Queens Goals adds bourbon vanilla to its base. The base of Astral is woodier, with amberwood and driftwood, and has no vanilla at all.
Belle is the shortest list of the three: a single mandarin on top, rose and jasmine in the heart, and white musk alone in the base. It shares mandarin, jasmine and musk with Bujairami Astral. It has no pear, no green mandarin and no woody materials, so the woods of Astral's base are the clearest difference.
