What does Bujairami Silverback smell like?
Pear and peach open the scent with juicy, soft fruit. Pear is watery and crisp, peach is rounder and creamier, and bergamot brings a bitter-fresh lift underneath. Cotton flower adds a clean, soft white floral that keeps the fruit from turning syrupy.
The heart is jasmine, lotus flower and ylang-ylang, with cedar underneath. Jasmine gives a creamy white floral, ylang-ylang a richer, sweeter and almost custardy floral, and lotus a fresh, green-watery petal note. Cedar is a dry, pencil-like wood that keeps the florals from getting too rich.
The base is vanilla, sandalwood, amber and white musk. Vanilla gives a creamy warmth, sandalwood a smooth, milky wood, and amber a resinous glow. White musk keeps the base clean, so the finish is soft and woody, following on from the florals in the heart.
