Description
Houdini is the sunny, citrus floral extrait in the Bujairami range. A burst of bergamot, lime, lemon and blood orange opens it, creamy tiare flower sits in the heart, and sandalwood, musk and powdery notes give it a soft finish. It leans masculine and we list it for men. Wear it when you want to smell like the last warm evening of a holiday.
The Scent Journey
The Opening
Bergamot, lime and lemon give a sharp, sparkling start. Blood mandarin and blood orange add a deeper, sweeter citrus. The opening smells bright and juicy, like a bowl of fresh fruit in the sun.
The Heart
Tiare, the Tahitian gardenia, brings a creamy, slightly coconut-like floral. It softens the citrus and gives the scent a warm, beachy feel without any heaviness.
The Dry Down
Sandalwood adds a smooth, creamy wood. Musk keeps it close to the skin, and powdery notes give a soft, clean finish. The base feels relaxed and comfortable, like skin after a day outside.
Fragrance Notes

Longevity and Performance
Houdini is an extrait de parfum, the denser of the two Bujairami strengths we stock. Citrus florals wear lighter than ambers, so expect a bright trail in the first hours and then a soft sandalwood and musk layer close to the skin on most people. Extrait sits closer to the skin than eau de parfum, which helps the citrus hold on. Skin, heat and spray count all play a part.
When to Wear It
Houdini is suited to late spring and summer. Wear it on holiday, at the beach, on warm evenings and at summer parties. Four or five sprays suits a citrus extrait like this. In hot weather, the tiare and sandalwood bloom on warm skin.
It makes a great gift before a summer trip. The bright citrus and creamy floral feel like a holiday in a bottle.
Houdini Within the Bujairami Collection
For a sharper, simpler citrus, try Psycho. If you want citrus with spice and a woody tea base, Hectic is a good match. You can browse everything in stock in the full Bujairami collection.
