Above the Clouds by Bujairami: An Oriental Floral That Lifts and Warms

Bujairami has launched Above the Clouds, a women’s fragrance arriving in 2025 and created by perfumer Adam Bujairami. The scent sits in the oriental floral family, opening with citruses before settling into a smooth, comforting base of woods and musk.

At the top, mandarin, pink pepper, lysylang and grapefruit combine to create a bright, almost sparkling opening. The heart reveals white currant, jasmine and musk, giving the perfume a soft floral core with a hint of fruitiness. Then comes the base of cashmere wood, patchouli, ambergris and vanilla, which lends a creamy, warm finish that lingers nicely.

The principal accords – citrus, musky, white floral, soft spicy, sweet, woody, ambery, fruity, balsamic and vanilla – make this a surprisingly versatile fragrance. It is lively without being sharp, sweet without being cloying, and elegant without feeling stiff. The rare lysylang flower adds an unusual, exotic nuance that helps the perfume stand out.

Above the Clouds feels like a scent for the modern woman who wants something feminine but not overpowering. It evolves beautifully on the skin, moving from a fresh start to a tender middle and finally to a cosseting dry-down. This makes it suitable for both daytime wear and relaxed evenings, and it is especially pleasant in the milder months.

Adam Bujairami has composed a balanced, confident perfume that is easy to love. It doesn’t shout for attention, but it leaves a memorable, pleasant trail. Above the Clouds is a welcome new addition to the house’s catalogue, offering a different kind of oriental floral – one that feels light, warm and utterly wearable.

Women who appreciate oriental floral fragrances with a fresh, citrusy opening and a soft, woody-vanillic base. Particularly suited to those who want a versatile scent for everyday wear, from work to weekends, that remains refined and comfortable.

Above the Clouds is a charming and well-crafted fragrance from Bujairami. Its blend of freshness and warmth makes it a great option for women seeking a distinctive yet approachable perfume. A launch well worth exploring.
