What does Bujairami Glossed smell like?
Two of the three top notes in Bujairami Glossed are fruit, or close to it. Litchi is the translucent tropical fruit: watery, rosy and sweet, with a grape-like juiciness. Osmanthus is a small flower from East Asia whose smell is known for not being very flowery; it suggests apricot and peach skin with a suede-like undertone. Bergamot adds a bitter-fresh citrus lift. The result on paper is a soft, apricot-and-rose-toned fruitiness instead of a sharp citrus start.
Four flowers follow. Peony is a perfumer's reconstruction, since the flower gives no oil: light, rosy, a little green and slightly watery. Freesia is another reconstructed note, peppery and cool, close to the smell of cut stems in a florist's bucket. Orange blossom is sweeter and more honeyed, and jasmine is the richest of the four. Two airy flowers and two fuller ones give a bouquet that stays bright, and the litchi above it ties in with the rosy side of peony.
The base is short and dry. Musk gives a clean, skin-like softness. Sandalwood is a creamy, milky wood. Moss, listed without more detail, points to the damp, earthy, slightly salty note that anchors classic chypre perfumes. No vanilla, no amber and no sugar is named, so whatever sweetness the list holds comes from the fruit and the flowers. This guide files it under floral and woody.

Who wears Glossed

It is an extrait de parfum; the listing gives no bottle size. The note list is a ten-name pyramid with a clear weight in the middle, four flowers out of ten, and it mixes natural materials such as osmanthus and sandalwood with reconstructed notes such as peony and freesia.
