What does Bujairami Hustler smell like?
Bujairami Hustler opens with eight notes, the spiciest part of the list: green apple, cardamom, black pepper, chili pepper, nutmeg, clove, lemon and grapefruit. Green apple in perfumery is usually an aroma-chemical accord with a crisp, unripe fruit tone, and the spices give the top a warm and dry bite. Lemon and grapefruit lift the edges.
The heart is aromatic rather than sweet. Lavender and clary sage give a herbal, slightly floral freshness, mint and rosemary add a cool, green sharpness, and coriander brings a citrus-spice warmth. Mastic and lentisque both come from the Pistacia family of trees, giving a piney, faintly sweet balsam that links the herbs to the base.
The base leans toward resins and woods. Pistachio and nutty notes bring a roasted, slightly creamy warmth, balsam fir and cedar give a dry, green-wood structure, and benzoin, peru balsam, incense and labdanum add a resinous, vanillic sweetness with a smoky edge. Patchouli finishes it with an earthy, dark wood that ties the spice and resin together.
