What do reviewers say about Santal des Indes and Idole Eau de Parfum?
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
It starts spicy. Actually spicy, the kind that makes you pause. Not everyone wants that in their fragrance. But for those who do, Idole is the one they keep coming back to.Idole Eau de Parfum
