What does Sandalwood smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close and keeps company through the day without filling a room. Most voters pick autumn and spring, with summer next, and it leans towards leisure, business and daily wear. Half of the voters call it masculine and a quarter call it classic.

It opens with herbaceous notes, lemon, bergamot and melon for a cool, bright start. Lavender, geranium, rose and lily of the valley soften that freshness in the heart. Sandalwood, musk, amber and tonka bean form a sweet, woody base.
