What does Bujairami Sweet Escape smell like?
Five notes, and four of them are sweet. Sugar cane opens Bujairami Sweet Escape alone. As a perfume note it is less like white sugar than the name suggests: fresh-cut cane is green and juicy, with a raw, slightly grassy sweetness. Vanilla and tonka bean share the heart. Vanilla is creamy and familiar; tonka bean is its drier cousin, with almond, hay and a trace of tobacco in its smell. The two are paired so often that they almost count as one accord.
Benzoin, a tree resin, continues the vanilla theme in balsamic form, warm and faintly caramel-like. Musk is the one note here that is not sweet. Clean and skin-like, it gives the sugar something soft to rest on. No fruit, flower, spice or wood is named anywhere on the list, which makes this a very plain statement of the gourmand idea.

Bujairami Sweet Escape next to similar scents
Vanilla, tonka bean and musk are on both lists, and both are five notes long. The other two differ: Bujairami Chubby has caramel and sandalwood, Bujairami Sweet Escape has sugar cane and benzoin. So Chubby pairs a cooked sugar with a wood, and Sweet Escape a raw, green sugar with a resin. Chubby is an extrait; Sweet Escape is listed in both types.
Bujairami Powder Affair ends exactly where Bujairami Sweet Escape spends most of its list, on musk, tonka bean and vanilla. Its first two tiers are coconut and powdery notes, which point to a soft, cosmetic kind of sweetness. Sweet Escape names neither. Its opening is sugar cane and its extra base note is benzoin, a balsamic resin.
Spices, tonka bean, amber and vanilla make up Bujairami The Rock Absolutely, an eau de parfum of four notes. The tonka and vanilla are shared with Bujairami Sweet Escape. The Rock Absolutely frames them with spice and amber, a warmer and drier frame; Sweet Escape frames them with sugar cane, benzoin and musk and has no spice at all.
