Quick answer: Bujairami Inferno shares its inspiration, Stéphane Humbert Lucas God of Fire, with Mykonos Dreamscape, not with Mykonos Inferno, despite the name. Dreamscape and Bujairami Inferno are both strong, unisex and listed for autumn and winter. Dreamscape leads with mango, rhubarb and praline over cedar and moss; Bujairami Inferno lists citrus and spices over jasmine and oud, with amber, musk and tonka bean in the base.
Mykonos Dreamscape vs Bujairami Inferno is a comparison that starts with a name mix-up. Search for Inferno and you will find a Mykonos perfume and a Bujairami perfume that share the name, and it is natural to assume they are related. They are not. The Mykonos perfume that shares Bujairami Inferno's inspiration is Dreamscape. This article clears up the mix-up first, then compares Dreamscape and Bujairami Inferno properly. As always, we sell Mykonos and not Bujairami, so we are not neutral, and a note list can only hint at how a perfume will wear on your skin.
Two perfumes called Inferno
Mykonos Inferno is inspired by Creed Aventus Absolu. It is a fruity, spicy summer scent: blackcurrant, bergamot, grapefruit and caramelised pineapple, then clove, nutmeg, ginger, cardamom and rose, over a base of patchouli, oakmoss, amber, musk, vetiver, tonka bean and ambroxan. It belongs to the Sunforged collection and comes in 100 ml only.
Bujairami Inferno starts from somewhere else entirely: Bujairami presents it as inspired by God of Fire from Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777. The shared name is a coincidence, and the two scents point in different directions. If Mykonos Inferno is the one you were looking for, these are the pages you want:
- Mykonos Dreamscape vs Inferno, our comparison of the two Mykonos scents.
- Mykonos Inferno vs Maison Asrar Vanguard, a cross-brand comparison with a perfume that shares Inferno's inspiration.
- Mykonos Inferno vs Bujairami Bossman and Bujairami Emperor. Bujairami presents both as inspired by Creed Aventus Absolu, so these, not Bujairami Inferno, are the Bujairami counterparts to Mykonos Inferno.
What they have in common
Mykonos Dreamscape is inspired by Stéphane Humbert Lucas God of Fire; that is the line on its product page. Bujairami presents Bujairami Inferno as inspired by the same fragrance, and the inspiration is written into the product's own title.
On paper, the two share a fair amount:
- Strength. Both are rated strong.
- Season and setting. Both are listed for autumn and winter, and for daily wear and evenings.
- Who they suit. Both are unisex.
- A warm base. Both have amber and tonka bean in the base, and both carry jasmine in the heart.
- Citrus and spice. Both have citrus at the top and spice early on: Italian lemon, ginger and pink pepper in Dreamscape; citrus fruits and spices in Bujairami Inferno.
That shared ground comes from the shared inspiration. It is not a sign that the two are one perfume under two names. We explain what an inspiration line does and does not mean in what "inspired by" means on a perfume.
Mykonos Dreamscape vs Bujairami Inferno: notes compared
Dreamscape's pyramid is from the Mykonos handbook. Bujairami Inferno's description gives its opening as citrus fruits and spices rather than named materials, so read its top row as an outline.
| Mykonos Dreamscape | Bujairami Inferno | |
|---|---|---|
| Top | Mango, Italian lemon, rhubarb | Citrus fruits, spices |
| Heart | Ginger, jasmine, violet, praline, pink pepper | Jasmine, oud |
| Base | Cedar, grey amber, tonka bean, moss | Amber, musk, tonka bean |
| Concentration | Extrait de parfum | Eau de parfum |
| Character | Fruity, tropical, fresh spicy; intensity strong | Oriental woody with gourmand accents; intensity strong |
| Best season | Autumn, winter | Autumn, winter |
| Best for | Daily wear, evenings | Daily wear, evenings, special occasions |
Where they differ
- The fruit. Dreamscape names its fruit: ripe mango, with Italian lemon and rhubarb to keep it bright. Bujairami Inferno's listed opening is citrus and spice, with no mango named. If mango is what you are after, our pineapple and mango perfume guide covers the tropical side of the range.
- Oud. Bujairami Inferno puts oud in its heart next to jasmine, which on paper gives it a darker, more oriental-woody character. Dreamscape lists no oud.
- Praline and violet. Dreamscape's heart adds praline, violet and pink pepper to the jasmine and ginger: a nutty, slightly powdery sweetness. Our praline perfume guide explains what that note brings.
- The finish. Dreamscape's base has cedar and moss alongside grey amber and tonka, which keeps its drydown drier and slightly earthy. Bujairami Inferno's base is amber, musk and tonka bean, a softer, rounder close.
- Concentration. Dreamscape is an extrait de parfum; Bujairami Inferno is an eau de parfum. Both are rated strong.
Which one should you choose?
- You want a fruity scent with real warmth for the cold months: Dreamscape, with mango and praline over amber and moss.
- You like oud and jasmine together: Bujairami Inferno is the one of the two with oud listed.
- You prefer a dry, mossy finish to a soft, musky one: Dreamscape.
- You want a special-occasion scent: both are strong, but Bujairami Inferno is the one tagged for special occasions, while Dreamscape is listed for daily wear and evenings.
- You were really after pineapple, blackcurrant and a summer scent: that is Mykonos Inferno; start with Dreamscape vs Inferno.
Wearing Mykonos Dreamscape
Dreamscape is one of the strongest perfumes in the Mykonos range: an extrait rated strong, with sillage and projection both rated strong and longevity of 12+ hours in the handbook. Two sprays are plenty, three at most for an evening out. It is unisex and listed for autumn and winter, when the praline and amber feel cosy rather than heavy, and for daily wear and evenings.
