What does Bujairami Guava Vice smell like?
Guava is the first note, a ripe, slightly musky tropical fruit with a green edge. Madagascan mandarin orange adds a sweet, juicy citrus, and cardamom brings a warm, camphorous spice that keeps the fruit from becoming too soft.
The heart turns to oud, a dark, resinous wood that is the centre of the scent, with rose and peony giving a soft, dewy floral layer. Madagascan geranium adds a green, rosy facet, and sugar and vanilla bring a sweet, caramel-like warmth against the oud.
The base is amber, ambrostar and madagascan patchouli. Amber gives a warm, resinous glow and patchouli adds an earthy, dark depth. The name suggests a synthetic, amber-type material for ambrostar, so this guide says no more about it.
