About

Bukhara opens with a bright burst of juicy peach and tart blackcurrant, lifted by a touch of bergamot. This fruity introduction swiftly gives way to a lush heart of opulent white florals, with heady tuberose, elegant jasmine, and airy orange blossom taking centre stage. The dry down settles into a creamy, woody base where soft sandalwood and cedar mingle with warm amber and a comforting whisper of vanilla, creating a sophisticated and enduring presence.
