What does Bujairami When in Rome smell like?
With nine notes in three tiers, Bujairami When in Rome is easy to read. The top is fruit, pepper and citrus. Blackcurrant is tart and slightly sulphurous in the way of the bud, a juicy dark berry with a green edge. Pink pepper is not pepper at all but a berry with a dry, rosy, mildly peppery sparkle. Bergamot supplies the bitter citrus freshness that ties both to the flowers.
The heart is the most unusual part, because the list gives only one flower and names it three times. Jasmine is the full white floral, rich and a little indolic. Jasmine sambac is the Arabian kind, greener, sweeter and more fruity. Jasmine tea is an accord, a light, green and faintly bitter note that recalls the scented leaf itself. Together they move from heavy bloom to a cooler, dried-leaf edge, so the heart does not stay in one gear.
The base has three materials. Bourbon vanilla is the creamy, slightly smoky vanilla associated with the Indian Ocean. Cashmeran is a synthetic musky, woody, spicy molecule, soft and almost velvety. Guaiac wood adds a smoky, tea-like, slightly sweet dryness. After the berry and the flower, the base goes warm and woody without becoming heavy. This guide files the scent under floral and woody, which matches the middle and the bottom.
