What does Piano Santal smell like?

Most voters pick fall and winter, spring follows, and summer gets only a small share. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, with evening and business use also getting votes. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters don't pin it firmly as feminine or masculine.

The scent rests on a woody frame of sandalwood and cedar. Milk and white musk soften that frame into a creamy sweetness, while cumin adds a spicy warmth. Bergamot stays in the background, and ambroxan with the skin accord gives it a smooth, slightly gourmand, synthetic finish.
