What does Bujairami Tropical Oud smell like?
The top is mango, guava and neroli. Mango and guava give a ripe, juicy fruit that is sweet without being heavy, while neroli, distilled from bitter orange blossom, brings a green, bright floral edge that keeps the fruit clean.
The heart is coconut milk, osmanthus and ylang ylang. Coconut milk gives a creamy, lactonic softness, osmanthus adds an apricot-like, slightly leathery floral tone, and ylang ylang brings a rich, sweet floral body that links the fruit to the wood.
The base is oud, vanilla and amber. Oud is a dark, resinous wood that ranks among the costliest materials in perfumery, vanilla adds a soft sweetness, and amber gives a warm, resinous glow. Together they close the list on a richer, drier note than the fruit at the start.

How Tropical Oud compares with similar scents
Bujairami Mango Tango shares mango, orange blossom and coconut with this scent. Its top is mango, chamomile and orange blossom, its heart is coconut, ylang ylang and amber, and its base is vanilla, Siam benzoin and iris butter. This scent opens on guava and neroli, carries osmanthus in its heart, and uses oud where that one uses benzoin and iris butter, so the wood is what sets them apart.
Bujairami Ballerina shares coconut, vanilla and amber with this scent. It opens on coconut, apple, blackcurrant and grapefruit, with heliotrope, jasmine and rose in the heart. Its base is musk, raspberry, vanilla and amber. This scent opens on mango and guava instead, and carries osmanthus and oud where that one carries heliotrope and rose.
Bujairami Irresistible shares coconut, ylang ylang and vanilla with this scent. Its list is shorter and has no fruit at the top, where this scent opens on mango, guava and neroli. Its top is coconut milk and sand, its heart tuberose and ylang ylang, and its base vanilla and amber. This scent adds osmanthus and oud, and has neither the sand nor the tuberose.
