Santal Cream

I loooooove the scent but the longevity is so weak!!! :( I bought the 30ml at ₩69,000 and thought it was a rather fine price at first, but after testing the perfume a few times I find it almost completely fades away within an hour! Seriously so disappointing :( Even if I bring my wrist directly up to my nose I have to sniff and pay close attention to pick up any notes. The initial spray and dry-down smell sooo delicious and instantly made me fall in love, but all I pick up after an hour or so is subtle sandalwood with maybe just a tinge of creaminess. I wouldn't repurchase just because the longevity is seriously not worth it !!! :((((((((((((((((

It’s not original nor surprising but it’s delightful and delicious.If you like sandalwood, or are on the hunt for a sweet creamy sandalwood, you gotta try this. It’s inoffensive. Stars with a citrus blast then the creamy sweetness kicks in, then settles to woody goodness. Development is rather fast. I love all of its stages nothing too much. Delicate and well behaved. I do love Santal 33. I find they are creatures of different species. Santal 33 is aggressive and medicinal (I love that about it too). This is delicate and rounded. Both are beautiful but in different realms.

Very beautiful and underrated imo. I get a lot of soft, spicy cardamom and a touch of sweetness. No pickle-like sandalwood at all! The sandalwood is creamy and soft. There’s a calming and tranquil quality to this fragrance, for me. A very beautiful blend of slight spice, sweetness and wood.

I love this. My friend bought it as a souvenir from Korea for me and it is absolutely stunning. A rather spicy sandalwood scent, and i didnt find much similarity with Santal 33 (that one smelt more like a plastic shop to me...)! Lasts relatively long and smells closer to tam dao :)

Korean Santal 33, more creamy and soft scent that blends nicely with the sandalwood. Personally prefer the sharper, leathery scents of Santal 33, so I might stick with that. However, if you found Santal 33 to be too masculine or overpowering, I'd recommend giving this one a try.
