What does Bujairami Hotter Than Roses smell like?
Bujairami Hotter Than Roses opens with pepper in two forms. White pepper is the drier, woodier of the two, while pink pepper is a berry that reads rounder and a little fruity. Together they give the rose a sharp, warm entry, so the petals come in as a contrast rather than a soft start.
The heart is rose-led, though not in one register. Rose water gives a clear, watery petal impression, the rose itself is fuller and more velvety, and orange blossom brings a bright, honeyed sweetness with a slight bitter edge. Together they read as one floral block rather than three separate flowers.
The base is where the leather and incense come in. Leather adds a dry, faintly smoky animal edge that pulls against the rose, incense gives a resinous, church-like smoke, and musk, sandalwood and cashmeran fill out a soft, woody warmth. Cashmeran is a synthetic woody musk that tends to read smooth and slightly powdery.
