Bujairami Hectic is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Adam Bujairami. Hectic opens with Citron, Bergamot, and Orange, settles into a heart of Neroli, Cinnamon, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Guaiac Wood, Ambroxan, Frankincense, and Tea. Bujairami's Hectic carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Prepare for division: Hectic is a love-it-or-hate-it citrus bomb. Some hail it as the ultimate Imagination dupe with beast-mode performance, others find it a harsh, synthetic lemon cleaner. If you want a bold, powerful freshie and tolerate a bit of loudness, this might be your jam. Otherwise, approach with caution.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its potent projection and longevity make it less suitable for subtle office wear, but it's a solid choice for casual outings or sports, where its fresh energy can shine. The strong citrus and spicy accords, while invigorating, might be too informal or overwhelming for very formal events, though some find it acceptable for night dates due to its sillage.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Explosive citrus from citron, bergamot, and orange hits hard, often described as a burst of lemon-lime soda or even cleaning product. As the initial intensity mellows, a fresh spicy kick of ginger and cinnamon weaves in, adding warmth to the zesty top. A nuanced base of black tea emerges, settling into a soapy, slightly woody, and musky dry down, though some find the ambroxan too prominent or the tea note underdeveloped.
