What does Bujairami Jeddah smell like?
Lemon, cardamom and coriander make the start. Lemon is sharp and clean, cardamom is warm, green and slightly camphorous, and coriander seed reads as spicy, citrus-tinged and slightly soapy. Together they give the opening a spiced, fresh edge.
The heart brings Bulgarian rose, geranium, cypress and artemisia. Bulgarian rose is deep and classic, geranium adds a green, minty rosiness, cypress is a dry, resinous conifer, and artemisia is a bitter, herbal material related to mugwort. The middle is floral and green rather than sweet.
Oud, musk, rum, incense and patchouli form the base. Oud brings a dark, smoky wood, musk a soft, skin-like warmth, rum a sweet, boozy-woody impression, incense a resinous smoke, and patchouli an earthy depth. The base is the heaviest part of the list and holds the scent down.
