What do reviewers say about Santal Précieux (2021) and Santal Nabataea?
Cream and cumin on sandalwood. Not the expected play, sandalwood usually supports, never leads. Here it wraps in milk and warm spice, turning soft. Still holds its shape.Santal Précieux (2021)
Sandalwood that smells like it was roasted alongside the coffee. Not for those who want their woods clean and polite. But for anyone chasing something dusty, warm, and a little unexpected.Santal Nabataea
