    Real talk

    Sweeter and less complex than the original, that trade-off is the whole point. If you wanted the full Santal 33 experience, you'd pay for it. This version keeps the cream, loses the leather.Woody Sandalwood
    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
