Drunken Jade

Bu Feng

Green · Fruity · Sweet

Bu Feng Drunken Jade is a green, woody unisex scent that opens with grape and aldehydes and centres on styrax, thyme and labdanum. The opening pairs grape with aldehydes for a fruity, lightly sweet brightness. In the heart, styrax, thyme and labdanum pull that sweetness towards a spicy, resinous and animalic side. The base settles on gaiac wood and cedarwood, with the green tone staying in the background throughout. Voters find its longevity good, though the small number of votes makes that a tentative reading. It suits both men and women who want something characterful and a little off the beaten path. Bogue MEM and Blackbird Anemone have a close profile.

Bu Feng

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Bu Feng Holding the Sword is a unisex scent that pairs a fresh, citrusy feel with spice, flowers and smoky wood. Saffron opens it, metal and red rose form the heart, and cedarwood anchors the base. The freshness and citrus are softened by a light sweetness, while earthy and smoky tones add a slightly synthetic edge. Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good. It earns a high rating, though the number of votes is small. As a unisex scent it doesn't lean masculine or feminine. Davidoff Cool Elixir Safran Mineral and Montale Aoud Safran have a close profile.
