What does Santal Wood smell like?

Sandalwood, patchouli and oud form the core, with rum adding sweetness and Crete labdanum a resinous warmth. Spice and smoke sharpen the woody structure, while the earthy side keeps it dark and heavy.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evening and night-out wear. It reads somewhat more masculine, though it is a unisex fragrance. Tom Ford Oud Fleur and Robert Piguet Bois Noir have a close profile.
