What does Bujairami Manifesto smell like?
Bitter orange and bergamot open the perfume with a bright, slightly bitter citrus. Bitter orange comes from the peel of the sour orange tree and reads drier and more aromatic than the sweet orange of most colognes, while bergamot, pressed from a small citrus grown around Calabria, adds a green, bitter edge.
Cardamom and cumin take over in the heart. Cardamom is green and camphoraceous, cumin is warm, dry and faintly animalic, and with the listed spices they give the middle a peppery warmth. The heart stays spiced and dry, with no sugar in it.
The base brings cedar, amberwood and benzoin together with leather and tolu balsam. Cedar is dry and pencil-like, amberwood is a synthetic woody amber, benzoin is a sweet resin with a vanilla-like smell, and tolu balsam is a balsamic resin from a South American tree, warm and faintly cinnamon-like. Leather adds a smoky, dry edge, so the drydown is woody with a sweet undertone.
