What does Bujairami Wild Thoughts smell like?
The opening is buttercream, a single note. In perfumery buttercream reads as a rich, dairy sweetness, a little like warm butter and sugar, and it sets a soft, dessert-like tone from the first moment.
The heart is plum, almond, iris and sandalwood. Plum gives a dark, ripe fruitiness, almond a sweet, marzipan-like nuttiness, iris a powdery, cool root note, and sandalwood a creamy, smooth wood. Iris and sandalwood are the drier part of the heart, and they steady the sweetness.
The base is ambrette and ambroxan. Ambrette is a soft, warm musk with a faintly fruity edge, made from the seed of a mallow-family plant, and ambroxan is a dry, ambery, mineral warmth. Together they make the drydown a quiet, musky end to the scent.

Wild Thoughts and its closest neighbours
Bujairami Wild Thoughts and Bujairami Affinity share iris and ambrette, which appear in both lists. Affinity is listed as one untiered run, with pink pepper and a warm, musky base of ambrox. Wild Thoughts opens on buttercream and carries plum and almond in its heart, neither of which is on the Affinity list, so the gourmand sweetness sits on the Wild Thoughts side.
Bujairami Wild Thoughts and Bujairami New Rules share ambrette and an ambrox note in the base. New Rules opens on violet and has palo santo, frankincense and myrrh in its heart, so it is a resinous, woody scent where Wild Thoughts is sweet. Wild Thoughts adds buttercream, plum, almond, iris and sandalwood before the musk, and that heart is the main difference between the two.
Bujairami Wild Thoughts and Bujairami Iris Wear share iris, sandalwood and ambrette, three notes from the heart and base of Wild Thoughts. Iris Wear opens on iris and orange, and its heart is leather and rose, with sandalwood, ambrette, oud and cedar in the base. Wild Thoughts has plum and almond where Iris Wear has leather and rose, and it has no oud or cedar, so its base is a soft musk rather than dark and woody.
