What does Bujairami Crystal Glow smell like?
Kumquat is a small citrus with a sweet peel and a sharp, tart flesh, so it reads sweeter than lime. Lime is sharp, green and clean, and together the two give the opening a bright citrus edge that is brisker than most fruit-led tops.
The heart is the longest part of the list. Violet is soft, green and faintly powdery. Italian iris points to orris, the powdered root of an iris, which is dry, powdery and violet-like, and it is valued in perfumery partly because the root must age for years before use. Lilac is a floral that perfumers usually build from accords, and Egyptian jasmine is a warm, sweet white floral. Lily-of-the-valley adds a green, dewy sweetness to close the heart.
The base is vanilla, malt, white musk, ambrette, sandalwood and cedar. Vanilla is the sweet, creamy warmth here, and malt is a grainy, slightly biscuity note that many perfumers use as a soft, toasty accent. White musk and ambrette keep the base soft and musky, while sandalwood and cedar bring a creamy, dry woody line at the end of the list.
