What does Bujairami Bare Oud smell like?
Oud is the lead, the dark, resinous heartwood of agarwood, usually described as woody, animalic and a little medicinal. Here it sits in one list with almond, a marzipan-like sweetness, and raspberry, which is tart and jammy. The almond and fruit soften the edge of the oud, so the first impression is sweet rather than smoky.
Bourbon vanilla, sandalwood, atlas cedar and rose complete the list. Bourbon vanilla is the rounded vanilla associated with the Bourbon islands, sandalwood a creamy, milky wood, atlas cedar a drier, pencil-like cedar, and rose a soft petal note. Between them the woods and vanilla make a warm line, with the rose as the one floral.
Who Bare Oud suits
For him and for her is the brand's tag for this eau de parfum. This guide's own sorting puts it in gourmand and woody, because almond, raspberry and vanilla sit beside oud, sandalwood and atlas cedar. The brand lists no bottle size for it. The note list is a single untiered list of seven names with no order, a different kind of list from the three-tier scents in this guide.
