What does Bujairami Belissimo smell like?
Bergamot, violet leaves and mandarin open Bujairami Belissimo with a green, bitter and sweet citrus. Bergamot is the bitter-fresh peel that gives many citrus perfumes their backbone, and mandarin is the softer, juicier fruit beside it. Violet leaves add the green, faintly cucumber-like coolness of the plant rather than the powdery sweetness of the flower, so the opening reads as green before it reads as sweet.
The heart is the floral part of the list, and it is a full one. Tuberose is heady, creamy and white, and rose and jasmine give it a softer, rounder shape. Ylang-ylang adds a fruity, custardy sweetness, and neroli, distilled from bitter orange blossom, brings a bright, slightly green edge that keeps the cluster from sitting heavily. Five floral notes together make this the thickest layer of the pyramid.
The base is drier and woodier. Iris, which comes from orris root, is powdery and cool, sandalwood is creamy and smooth, and cedar is dry and pencil-like. Those three turn the florals into a settled, woody finish. The progression runs from green citrus to white flowers to wood, the familiar shape of a floral eau de parfum, read here from the list alone.
Who Belissimo suits
The brand tags Bujairami Belissimo for him and for her, and lists it as an eau de parfum in 100 ml. This guide's family label is citrus, floral and woody, sorted from the notes: a citrus top, a floral heart and a woody base. The list is tiered into three layers, and the citrus layer carries the most weight in the sorting, since two of its three top notes are a peel and a fruit.

How Belissimo compares with similar scents
Set beside Bujairami Blossom, Bujairami Belissimo shares tuberose, rose and jasmine. Rose and tuberose sit in both hearts. Blossom opens on jasmine, orange blossom and peach, and its base is musk, orange blossom, praline, iris and sandalwood. Belissimo opens on bergamot, violet leaves and mandarin, and its base is iris, sandalwood and cedar.
Bujairami Final Vow opens on calabrian bergamot, magnolia and bulgarian rose, so its top is floral where Bujairami Belissimo's is green and citrus. The shared notes are bergamot, rose and jasmine, and Final Vow also places jasmine in its base. Its heart is rice, tuscan iris and virginia cedar, a shorter floral middle.
Bujairami Pink Voltage shares bergamot and mandarin with Bujairami Belissimo, both on top, and violet, which Belissimo has as violet leaves on top, sits in its heart. Pink Voltage opens on pink pepper, goes to strawberry, and closes on vetiver and cedar. Belissimo's floral heart of tuberose, rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang and neroli has no counterpart in it.
