What does Bujairami Life in Dubai smell like?
The four materials in Bujairami Life in Dubai are oud, praline, vanilla and rose. Oud is distilled from agarwood, the resin that forms in wounded heartwood, and it brings a dark, woody and sometimes animalic note. Praline is a confection of caramelised nuts and sugar, so in perfumery it reads as roasted, nutty sweetness. Vanilla is a warm, creamy sweetness that often softens darker materials.
Rose is the only floral in the list, and it is the one material that is neither dark nor sugary. Its place in the list is what keeps the scent from settling into pure dessert, since the oud and the praline would otherwise have nothing bright to answer them.
