What does Bujairami Lolita smell like?
Fig leaf, which opens Bujairami Lolita, is green and milky, close to the sap of the fruit tree. It sits beside bergamot and mandarin, while pink pepper adds a dry, peppery edge. The top is the lightest part of the list, giving the citrus and spice their first turn.
Fig returns in the heart as a soft, fruity sweetness, and ylang-ylang brings a rich, custardy floral. Salt is an unusual heart note, and in perfumery it is used as a faint mineral edge that keeps the sweetness from going flat.
The base is the dark, sweet end of the list. Muscovado sugar is an unrefined cane sugar with a molasses-like depth, liquorice adds an anise-sweet darkness, and patchouli and vetiver give earthy, woody bottom notes that stop the sugar reading as candy.
Who Lolita suits
The brand gives no audience tag for Lolita, so this guide offers none either. It sorts the scent under citrus, gourmand and woody, three families it took from the notes: the bergamot and mandarin for citrus, the muscovado and liquorice for gourmand, and the vetiver and patchouli for woody. It is an eau de parfum with eleven materials across three tiers.

Lolita and its closest neighbours
Bujairami Lolita and Bujairami 10/10 share bergamot, mandarin and ylang-ylang. 10/10 is a much longer list: its top adds truffle, gardenia, blackcurrant, jasmine and Amalfi lemon, its heart adds orchid, spices and lotus, and its base runs through Mexican chocolate, incense, amber and white musk. Lolita's fig, salt and muscovado have no counterpart there.
Bujairami Lolita and Bujairami Sunny Day share bergamot and pink pepper at the top, and ylang-ylang in the heart. Sunny Day opens with pistachio and cardamom, adds tuberose and jasmine to its heart, and closes on coconut, amber, tonka bean and benzoin. Lolita has no pistachio or coconut, and where Sunny Day has amber in the base, Lolita has patchouli and vetiver.
Bujairami Lolita and Bujairami The Drifter share pink pepper, patchouli and vetiver, and The Drifter is the extrait of this three-scent set. Its top is geranium, pink pepper and citrus, its heart red peony, cardamom and saffron, and its base oud, cypriol, patchouli, vetiver and musk. Lolita has fig and muscovado where The Drifter has floral and spice, and it has no oud or cypriol at all.
