What does Bujairami Golden Boy smell like?
Bujairami Golden Boy opens on mandarin and cardamom. Mandarin is a soft, sweet citrus that is gentler than lemon or bergamot, and cardamom is aromatic and faintly camphorous, which keeps the citrus from sounding sugary. Cinnamon then comes into the heart as a warm, dry spice, with cedar beside it.
The base is sandalwood alone. Sandalwood is a creamy, smooth wood that holds the spices and the citrus in place as the list winds down. Being the sole base material here, it carries the finish, and the wood reads as the scent's main structure.
