What does Bujairami Dominion smell like?
Rum and sugar cane give the opening a dark, molasses-like sweetness, and cardamom and clary sage add a green, aromatic spice on top of it. Artemisia, a bitter herb with a dry, sagey edge, keeps the sweetness from running on. The herbal top is dry, so the sweetness is always held back.
The heart is leather, fir resin, pepper and styrax. Leather gives a dry, smoky animal character, fir resin adds a cool, piney balsam, pepper a warm bite, and styrax a sweet, balsamic resin that softens the edges. This is the most resinous part of the list.
The base brings tobacco leaf, woody notes, castoreum, akigalawood, Mexican vanilla and juniper. Tobacco leaf is sweet and hay-like, and castoreum is an animalic material traditionally taken from beaver scent glands that adds a leathery warmth. Mexican vanilla and juniper add sweetness and a sharp, green edge, and akigalawood is a synthetic woody material, going by its name.
