What does Bujairami Moonbeam smell like?
The opening is smoky, fruity and bright. Incense brings a resinous, smoky dryness, raspberry adds a tart, jammy berry note, and apricot a soft, peachy sweetness. Raspberry and apricot together give a candied fruit effect, and the incense keeps it from tipping into plain sugar.
Cotton candy in the heart is a sugary, airy note, often built from vanilla-like and fruity materials, so it reads as spun sugar. Sandalwood and guaiac wood sit beside it: sandalwood is creamy and smooth, and guaiac wood is a sweet, smoky, rosy wood with a pencil-like edge.
The base is patchouli, tonka bean and amberwood. Patchouli is earthy and dark, tonka bean a warm, almond-like sweetness with a hay-like tone, and amberwood a dry, ambery wood that keeps the sugar in check.
