What does Bujairami Ballerina smell like?
The opening is a bright, fruity cluster. Coconut is creamy and milky, apple adds a crisp, green sweetness, blackcurrant brings a dark, jammy tartness, and grapefruit a bitter, clean citrus that keeps the top from sitting heavy.
Heliotrope, jasmine and rose make the heart. Heliotrope is a powdery floral with an almond and cherry-like warmth, jasmine is a heady white flower, and rose is a softer, rounder petal. Heliotrope gives the floral its powdery edge, and the jasmine keeps it from going soft.
The base is musk, raspberry, vanilla and amber. Musk is the skin-like backdrop, raspberry puts a tart fruit note back into the base, vanilla gives a creamy sweetness and amber a warm resinous glow. Because raspberry comes back at the bottom, the fruit runs through the whole list rather than stopping at the top.

Bujairami Ballerina next to similar scents
Bujairami Diva opens on red apple, litchi, blackcurrant and pink grapefruit, which overlap with the apple, blackcurrant and grapefruit of Ballerina. Its heart adds wild berries and raspberry bloom where Ballerina keeps heliotrope and rose, and its base is sugar, musk, vanilla flower, amber and moss.
Bujairami Fruit Wave opens on strawberry, melon, mandarin, orange and bergamot, which Ballerina does not have. Ballerina puts coconut and apple in its top, while Fruit Wave holds them in its heart with blackcurrant. Its base is powdery notes, vanilla and musk, where Ballerina's base adds raspberry and amber.
Bujairami Citrusa has a pomelo and grapefruit top, where Ballerina has coconut, apple, blackcurrant and grapefruit. Its heart is green tea, white flowers and rose, and its base is vetiver, iris and amber. Grapefruit, rose and amber are common to both, but Citrusa lists no jasmine, no heliotrope and no musk, and it moves into green and dry notes instead.
