What does Absolute Santal by Elite Gentleman smell like?

Cardamom brings a spicy lift at the start, and violet leaf adds a floral, green note in the heart. Australian sandalwood leads the base, settling the scent into something woody, creamy and lightly sweet. Oriental and gourmand touches round out the accords.

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. It is rated well for value. Positioned as a men's scent, it has a profile close to Avon Mesmerize Mystique Amber for Him and Emporio Armani Stronger With You.
