What does Bujairami Lime Surge smell like?
The name says lime, but the list names no lime. Four citrus materials open the scent. Bergamot is bitter and slightly floral. Orange is sweet and juicy, mandarin rounder and softer still. Litsea cubeba, a small tree whose berries are distilled, has a scent like lemon with a verbena-like, grassy edge, sharper than any of the other three. Between them the top has a full range of citrus, from bitter to sweet to sharp.
The heart has two notes. Oolong tea is a partly fermented tea, smelling of leaf, with a floral-fruity and slightly roasted character between green and black tea. Nutmeg is a warm, sweet, faintly woody spice. Tea gives the citrus something to settle into, and nutmeg adds a rounder warmth. It is a heart that is more about texture than flowers.
Fig and musk close the list. Fig as a note has a green, milky, slightly coconut-like softness, with a woody edge from the leaf and wood of the tree. Musk adds a clean, skin-like haze. This guide files the scent as citrus, and the list backs that up, since four of its eight notes are citrus fruits, but the tea, nutmeg and fig mean it ends softer and rounder than the top suggests.

Who Lime Surge suits
Bujairami Lime Surge carries the brand's for-him-and-for-her tag. No bottle size appears in the data this guide read, so none is given. From the notes the guide derives one family, citrus, which is its own sorting and not the brand's. The concentration is eau de parfum. The list is eight notes in three tiers, with a heart limited to tea and spice.
