What does Bujairami First Light smell like?
Organic green mandarin is a sweet, zesty citrus with a fresher, greener edge than a ripe orange. Neroli is the bitter-sweet, faintly honeyed oil from bitter orange blossom, so the opening is citrus with a white-flower sparkle, the mandarin brightening and the neroli giving it shape.
Orange blossom is a warm, honeyed white floral, and freesia is a fresh, slightly waxy flower with fruity sweetness. White musk gives a clean, soft, skin-like finish under them. The flowers repeat the citrus theme in another key, so the middle carries the opening forward without a sharp edge.
At the foot, the wood takes over. Pistachio wood accord is a creamy, nutty wood with a faintly roasted warmth, and sandalwood keeps the drydown smooth and milky. The listed woody notes are not named further, so this base is best read as creamy and woody overall.
