What does Woody Sandalwood smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. It reads neither masculine nor feminine, and voters rate it well for the price.

It opens with a light, green touch of violet leaf and cardamom. The heart of iris, cypriol, ambrox and cedarwood forms a woody frame. In the base, sandalwood, amber and musk bring a creamy, slightly sweet warmth, while the fresh, floral and earthy shades stay in the background.
