What does Bujairami Chosen smell like?
Grapefruit opens the list as a bitter, juicy citrus, with coriander a green, slightly citrusy seed note and basil a sweet, peppery herb. The top is clean and green, with the citrus in front and the herbs behind it.
The heart is spiced and warm. Ginger is a hot, fresh root, cardamom a sweet, camphorous spice, and orange blossom a honeyed white flower that softens the spice. Together they give the middle of the list a sharper, drier warmth than the top.
The base is amber, tobacco and cedar. Amber gives a resinous, warm sweetness, tobacco a dry, leathery and slightly sweet note, and cedar a pencil-like dryness that closes the list. The base is dry and resinous overall.

Chosen compared with three similar Bujairami scents
Bujairami Chosen One shares five notes with this list: basil, cardamom, cedar, coriander and ginger, all of them listed without tiers. This list puts grapefruit at the top and orange blossom in the heart, which Chosen One does not name, and it adds amber and tobacco to the base.
Bujairami Cartel is an extrait de parfum and shares amber and tobacco with this list. Cartel opens on saffron, moves through rose and tobacco, and settles on amber and oud. This list has no saffron, rose or oud, and its opening is grapefruit, coriander and basil where Cartel's is a single spice. The two lists have only those two notes in common.
Bujairami Elite One shares amber and tobacco with this scent and no other note by name. It opens on orange, nutmeg and black pepper, builds on labdanum, patchouli and clary sage, and ends on amber, tobacco and vetiver. This list is green and citrus on top, with spice and herb under it. Elite One is spiced on top and turns resinous and earthy in the heart, where this list keeps its warmth in ginger and cardamom. Only amber and tobacco carry across between the two bases.
