What does Bujairami Cyprus smell like?
Cinnamon and tobacco set the opening. Cinnamon gives a warm, bark-like sweetness, and pink pepper adds a dry sparkle on top of it. Tobacco, which in perfumery reads as a dried, honeyed leaf rather than smoke, sits close to cardamom, whose green, camphor-tinged spice keeps the start from turning heavy.
Sandalwood is the creamy centre of the heart, and it gives patchouli's dark earthiness something softer to sit on. Heliotrope adds a powdery, almond-like tone, while geranium and jasmine lift the middle with rosy and white-floral notes.
The base is resinous and sweet. Benzoin and tolu balsam are both balsams, so they carry a vanilla-like warmth with a faint spiced edge, and bourbon vanilla and tonka bean add creaminess and a dry, almond-tinged sweetness. Ambroxan, a synthetic amber material, finishes the drydown with a warm, slightly salty ambery feel.
