What do reviewers say about Santal des Indes and Herod?
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
Some fragrances suggest. Herod insists. The tobacco-vanilla base isn't subtle, it's the whole argument, and it wins. Sweet enough to pull people in, structured enough to keep them at a distance.Herod
