What does Bujairami Midnight Booz smell like?
The opening is a drink and a fruit. Cognac in perfumery is a warm, grape-derived note with a dried-fruit, slightly woody sweetness, and liquor widens that into a general spirit accord with a hint of burn. Raspberry sits on top of both: tart, seedy and red, it keeps the opening from being purely a glass of something amber.
In the heart the list turns floral and mossy. Tonka bean carries almond, hay and a vanilla-like softness. Bulgarian rose is the rose of the Balkan valley, deep and slightly honeyed, a little more jammy than a fresh garden rose. Oakmoss is the lichen that grows on oak bark, and it smells of damp forest floor, bitter and earthy. Between the sweet bean and the rose it adds the only truly dry, shaded note in the middle of the pyramid.
Praline, oak and sandalwood make the base. Praline is caramelised nut, sugar with a roasted edge, and it carries the booze theme down in a sweeter register. Oak is the cask itself: pale, dry, slightly vanillic wood, the material that spirits are aged in. Sandalwood is creamy and smooth, and joins the other woods. This guide files the scent under gourmand and woody, and the oak and sandalwood are why the second label is there.
