What does Bujairami Darkness smell like?
Bergamot, pineapple and grapefruit open the scent. Bergamot is bitter-fresh and floral, grapefruit is sharper and more bitter, and pineapple adds a juicy, slightly tart fruitiness. Together they make a bright, tangy start that leans on citrus more than on sweetness.
Patchouli, cedar and jasmine form the heart. Patchouli is earthy and dark, cedar is dry and pencil-like, and jasmine is a warm white floral that softens the woods. Here the citrus starts to give way to wood.
Oakmoss, woody notes and amber close the list. Oakmoss gives a damp, mossy, earthy depth, the woody notes add dry smoothness, and amber brings a resinous warmth that rounds the base. The base has no vanilla or sugar in it, so the drydown stays dry and woody.
