Santal Beauty

Lovely, subtle smell. Fresh slightly "citrusy" start, then it evolves to Santal 33 or Papyrus Moleculaire, quite gentle and pleasant. I can not say it has unique smell, but hints of saffron give it some dimensions. I would consider this fragnance as non-offensive, soft and enjoyable, for daily use.

Dry sandalwood with some fresh and airy undertones. Cooling spices (black pepper probably) and something very green (I would say violet leaf). But it definitely smells very vegetative so if you’re not into “dill type of sandalwood”, watch out!

Beautiful violet forward fresh / woody EDP. Very fleeting such a shame it’s a very pretty fragrance

This behaves well on my skin, but ...that’s about as far as it goes. Soft sandalwood, gentle musk, clean and unobjectionable... and unfortunately, for me, completely uninspiring. Don't get me wrong, it is actually a good sandalwood / musk combo, and if that is up your alley you could just love this. Nothing turns sour, nothing screeches .. but personally, I just find it a bit flat and linear, and it never really develops into anything to draw me back in. In summary: A perfectly “nice” scent that I simply wouldn’t ever reach for.

There’s a lot more going on in this than just sandalwood; it's like a lemony, juicy, vegetal green note rises above everything else. I also pick up some white florals. I couldn’t quite bring myself to love this scent; it only becomes pleasant in the dry-down, transforming into a nice “paper” smell. But not like the pages of an old book; more like you've buried your face in the inner pages of a brand-new one. A Light Academia scent.
