    What do reviewers say about Santal des Indes and New York Intense?

    If you're looking for Santal 33, look elsewhere. Santal des Indes is darker, more resinous, the mineral kind of sandalwood that stops you mid-step. The absinthe gives it an edge most woody fragrances.Santal des Indes
    There's an oud in the base. Dense, animalic, not for the faint of heart. But here it's been tamed by blackberry sweetness and honey warmth, pulled into something that adds depth without dominating.New York Intense
