What does Bujairami Orana smell like?
Cardamom, pink pepper and coriander open the scent. Cardamom is a green, camphorous and slightly sweet spice, pink pepper a light, rosy sharpness, and coriander a fresh, citrusy-spicy seed note that makes the opening sound clean.
The heart is nutmeg, carrot seeds and incense. Nutmeg adds a warm, woody spice, carrot seed a dry, earthy, faintly sweet seed note, and incense a smoky, resinous lift that pulls the spices toward the base.
The base is cedar, moss and balsam fir. Cedar gives dry, pencil-like wood lines, moss a damp, green earthiness, and balsam fir a resinous, piney edge. Together they keep the scent on a dry, woody footing from the first spice to the last.
