What do reviewers say about 21 and Santal 33?
The milk-saffron opening is distinctive, soft and slightly sweet with a golden warmth that feels almost edible. But it doesn't stay. What replaces it is a warm, resinous.21
This fragrance is less a perfume and more an atmospheric event. The sandalwood is the anchor but the leather and papyrus make it interesting. Not everyone will appreciate the slightly feral quality.Santal 33
