What does Bujairami Rock Bottom smell like?
Cypress and pink pepper open the scent. Cypress brings a green, faintly resinous wood, and pink pepper is not a true pepper but the dried berry of a South American tree. It adds a dry, slightly sweet spice that lifts the opening without making it sharp.
Myrrh and Indonesian patchouli make the heart. Myrrh is a gum resin with a bitter, balsamic and faintly medicinal edge, while Indonesian patchouli is earthy, dark and a little camphorous. Put together they give a dry, incense-like centre.
Suede, benzoin and cistus form the base. Suede is a soft, powdery leather accord that most perfumers use to suggest leather without its harshness. Benzoin is a sweet, vanilla-like resin from Styrax trees, and cistus, the rockrose that yields labdanum, adds a dry, honeyed amber line. The base is warm and resinous, and it keeps the heart in place.

Bujairami Rock Bottom next to similar scents
Bujairami Pacific Spice opens on incense and leather, and Rock Bottom opens on cypress and pink pepper, so the tops share little. In the heart the two meet at myrrh and patchouli. Pacific Spice then moves to cedar and davana in the base, where Rock Bottom keeps suede, benzoin and cistus. Suede is the nearest thing Rock Bottom has to the leather in Pacific Spice's top.
Bujairami Ocean Waves opens on salt and mandarin, a briny, citrus start where Rock Bottom opens on cypress and pink pepper. The two share patchouli and benzoin, though Rock Bottom places patchouli in the heart and Ocean Waves places it at the base. Ocean Waves adds marine notes, leather and jasmine to its heart, and amber and musk to its base.
Bujairami Stalemate starts on red currant and mandarin, moves through pomegranate and damask rose, and ends on leather, benzoin, patchouli and amber. Rock Bottom has benzoin and patchouli in common with it, but its myrrh and cistus give a drier, more resinous turn than the fruity heart of Stalemate. Rock Bottom's top is cypress and pink pepper.
