By the editors · 2 min readSandalwood opens with its characteristic creamy, smooth woodiness that sets the tone. Cardamom adds a warm, aromatic spice that complements the sandalwood's richness. Vanilla and tonka bean create a sweet, resinous heart with vetiver's earthy dryness. Amber in the base amplifies the warmth and adds a glowing, balsamic depth. The scent develops into a warm, woody-oriental with good persistence. Projects moderately and works best for fall and winter formal occasions.
