Sandalwood perfume

10 replies

Hello! After the success in finding a nice tobacco/woods/vanilla perfume, I'm now after a good sandalwood perfume. I'd prefer it to be as woody as possible, almost incense-y. I'm not super-keen on florals or a heavy powdery drydown. Any recommendations would be great - I know there are some really obvious choices out there but I'd like to hear folks' personal preferences. Thank-you!

Ah no sorry - it's patchouli rather than sandalwood. Delicious though😃

Santal 33 is amazing if Father Christmas is feeling generous this year.

Lovely suggestions, thanks all. I'd not heard of Le Jardin Retrouvé before, will try to find a stockist.

@snowynight - that still sounds delicious and v much in my preferred 'mega incense' category of perfumes so I'll try to find it!

@ChillinwiththeVillains Oh man, I would love to love Santal 33 but a dear friend wears it constantly so I'd feel a bit like her stalker.

Open to more reccs!

I like Santal blush Tom Ford

This article mentions santal 33 but also other similar scents. The LBTY range is generally v nice, if toppish. Might be worth a sniff. Beautiful bottles too

Try the Le Jardin Retrouve website. They ship from Paris and don't have many stockists but you might find some in Fortnums.
