What does Bujairami Whipped Santal smell like?
Vanilla absolute and amyris open the scent. Vanilla absolute is a concentrated, deeper vanilla extract with a rich, balsamic sweetness, and amyris is a woody, faintly smoky material often used in place of sandalwood, with a creamy, resinous warmth. Jasmine on top adds a bright, sweet floral edge over them.
The heart is sandalwood, coconut milk, orris root and jasmine. Sandalwood is the creamy, milky wood at the centre of the scent, coconut milk adds a soft, lactonic richness, and orris root is a powdery, violet-like iris note that reads dry and sweet at once. Jasmine returns here to balance the warmth. This middle is the creamiest part of the list.
The base is Iso E Super and ambrette. Iso E Super is a synthetic woody material with a smooth, velvety, cedar-like character that perfumers use to give a soft wood effect, and ambrette seed adds a musky, slightly fruity warmth. Together they keep the wood and musk soft and make the close dry rather than sweet.
