Sandalwood

Sandalwood incense is burned in temples throughout Japan, and this transports me to that zen place (literally a zen place :)! I really really like Demeter Sandalwood on its own or as a base note. It is entirely unisex -- mysterious and sensual on any gender. It isn't a childish or girlish scent and it can be worn from office to a date without giving anyone the wrong impression. It blends well with a lot of other scents, whether they are fresh, floral, or citrus. I like it layered with Demeter's heady Jasmine -- divine! I know Demeter changed their formulation to protect the endangered forest, and they should be congratulated for that. Whatever they're using, it smells great to me, and at this price point, what a steal!

OMG!!! This smells fantastic! It smells like high quality Sandalwood incense! I'm diggin this! Excellent Fragrance! I'm actually going to be ordering another 4oz in the next few weeks. I'm very pleased.

High quality sandalwood. This fragance is greasy, for that the longevity is good. Warm, sexy and real. Longevity: 7/10 Sillage: 6/10 Fragance: 10/10 Also I added 2 ml of australian sandalwood and 1 ml of authentic mysore oil, so now my cologne is 5 stars. For best results, use after a shower with mysore soap. You will be surprised

The current oil smells like sandalwood soap. A lovely smell. Lasts as briefly as most Demeter scents, but longer than more aromatic ones I own such as Gin and Tonic or Sushi. I can see using it after some Mysore soap as a skin conditioner before putting on Tam Dao.

A straightforward synthetic single note fragrance which leans more towards a light, sweet interpretation of sandalwood, which is pleasant and inoffensive yet lacks the depth, as well as the buttery, creamy and woodsy aspects of traditional oil-based fragrances. A simple, unpretentious single note, Demeter Sandalwood is unisex and could be worn for any occasion, although the longevity isn’t great and the silage modest, and it becomes a skin scent. Like all Demeter fragrances it works well when layered with one (or more) fragrances. Nevertheless it’s extremely affordable and for the price it unquestionably represents great value for money.
