What does Bujairami Lavish smell like?
Bujairami Lavish has two top notes that pull in different directions. Saffron is a spice with a dry, leathery, slightly medicinal smell and a trace of honey. Jasmine grandiflorum is the botanical name of the large-flowered jasmine of classic French perfumery, a sweet, sunny and slightly fruity flower. A warm spice next to a bright blossom sets the tone for a list that stays dry throughout.
The heart is mineral and woody. Ambergris stands for a salty, soft, skin-like warmth that perfumers now recreate with aroma molecules. Amberwood is a name for the modern dry-wood materials that smell of cedar and warm amber at once. Between them the brand writes simply “woody”, which is a description and not a material, and adds nothing more specific.
Cedar in the base is the dry, clean smell of pencil shavings. Sweet fir resin is the balsam of fir trees: sticky, coniferous and sugary at the same time, a little like pine sap warmed in the hand. It is the single sweet element in the list. Everything else is spice, flower, mineral or wood, which is why this guide files Lavish under woody.

How Lavish compares with similar scents
Bujairami First Class is the shortest route to the same core: saffron on top, jasmine and cedar in the heart, amber in the base. Bujairami Lavish names all three shared notes and builds more around them, with ambergris and amberwood in the heart and sweet fir resin below. First Class is an extrait; Lavish is an eau de parfum.
Bujairami Deep Night and Bujairami Lavish have no listed note in common. Deep Night is rose, powdery notes, oud, amber and vanilla; Lavish is saffron, jasmine grandiflorum, ambergris, amberwood, cedar and fir resin.
Bujairami Chroma shares jasmine in the heart and cedar in the base with Bujairami Lavish. Its top is bergamot and citrus fruits, and it ends on musk, so on paper it is the brighter, cleaner list. Lavish replaces the citrus with saffron and the musk with ambergris, amberwood and fir resin. Both are eaux de parfum.
