What does Bujairami Tux smell like?
Honey and saffron lead the list. Honey brings a waxy sweetness, while saffron, from crocus stigmas, adds a dry, slightly leathery and metallic warmth. Fig sits beside them as a milky, green-sweet fruit, and violet and sage give the opening a powdery, herbal edge. Violet is usually a soft powdery floral, and sage is aromatic and a little camphorous.
The heart turns floral. Rose and osmanthus carry the middle, osmanthus being apricot-like and slightly leathery, and jasmine adds a white, slightly animalic richness. Geranium adds a green, rosy, faintly minty facet, and nutmeg warms the middle with a dry spice from the seed.
The base is the heaviest part of the list. Oud brings resinous, smoky wood, and whiskey, which the brand lists as a note, is usually a constructed boozy accord rather than a single material. Vanilla, amber, leather and gurjan balsam round it off with sweetness and resin, cinnamon adds bark-like warmth, and cedar keeps the close dry and woody.

Is Tux for you?
Bujairami's own tag for Tux is for him and for her, so the brand does not restrict it to one group. This guide's own sorting, derived from the notes and not a brand classification, places it in oriental, floral and gourmand. The concentration is eau de parfum. The note list is a full pyramid of five top notes, five in the heart and eight at the base, which makes it a long, layered list rather than a short one.
