What does Bujairami Havana smell like?
The opening is busy. Cinnamon and nutmeg give a warm, slightly woody spiciness, saffron adds a honeyed, leathery and faintly metallic edge, and oud brings a dark, resinous wood that tends to read rich rather than sharp. Green apple and white pear sit beside them as a fruity lift, so the spices never arrive as one block.
The heart is smaller. Patchouli gives an earthy, slightly sweet depth and jasmine a white floral softness, and between them they round off the dry spices of the top. Incense is listed in the top rather than the heart, but its smoky resin carries forward into this middle stage.
The base is the longest part of the list. Tobacco gives a sweet, dried-leaf character, Madagascar vanilla and amber make it creamy and warm, and guaiac wood, sandalwood, white musk and Haitian vetiver add smoky, creamy and earthy woody layers beneath.
Who wears Havana
The brand's audience tag for Havana is for him and for her, so it is listed for either. This guide's own sorting places it in two families, oriental and woody, because the resins, spices and sandalwood carry as much weight as the warm amber. It is an eau de parfum, listed by the brand in 100 ml, with a three-tier note list.

Havana and its closest neighbours
Energy Burst and Havana share oud, patchouli and jasmine, but they are built differently. Energy Burst opens on lemon, almond, black pepper and coriander, a citrus and peppery lift, and leans toward vanilla, amber and leather in the base. Havana starts with cinnamon, saffron and incense, so its opening is spiced and resinous instead.
Yellow Stone is the nearest of the three in its spices. Both lists open on oud, cinnamon and nutmeg, and both carry amber and vanilla in the base. Yellow Stone has jasmine in the heart but no patchouli, and it adds cedar and musk where Havana has tobacco and saffron.
Legend shares patchouli, jasmine and spices with Havana, yet its list begins from a citrus side that Havana does not have. Sicilian lemon, blackcurrant and bergamot lead, then fruity notes, patchouli leaf and water jasmine in the heart. Havana's heart is patchouli and jasmine, and its base leans on tobacco and amber rather than cedar and moss.
