What does Bujairami Pistachio Cake smell like?
Lentisk is the resin of the mastic tree, a dry, green and faintly piney resin with a sharp freshness. Orange lifts it, and pistachio nut adds a roasted, nutty, slightly green character that sets the tone for the whole scent.
The heart is built on pistachio, tonka bean and marshmallow cream. Pistachio is the note the middle is named for, rendered as creamy and nutty. Tonka bean adds a warm, hay-like, almond-tinged sweetness, and marshmallow cream brings a soft, sugary, powdery body.
The base is sandalwood, musk, patchouli and ambrette. Sandalwood is smooth and creamy, musk and ambrette add a soft animalic warmth, and patchouli brings an earthy, dark woody depth that keeps the sweetness from becoming too light. Together they make a warm, woody base under the sweet middle.
