EarthyWhat does Santalla / La Esencia de Sta. Eulalia smell like?
Citrus and green apple keep the opening bright, while cardamom and pink pepper add a spicy edge. In the heart, jasmine, violet and frankincense bring a floral, powdery softness, and patchouli with ginger adds an earthy depth. The base settles on teakwood, sandalwood and vetiver.
Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters place it mostly in leisure, business and daily wear. On character, masculine leads slightly, with feminine close behind. nBitor Santalla and Armaf Odyssey Wild One have a close profile.
