OrientalWhat does Santal Sohar smell like?
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage good, though only a small number of voters have rated it. There is no season or occasion information to lean on, and as a unisex scent it sits between masculine and feminine.
It opens with basil and rose, giving a green, floral start. Clove adds spice in the heart, while sandalwood settles into a creamy, woody, resinous base. A touch of citrus lifts it slightly, and sweet, gourmand accords soften the whole.
