    Real talk

    Burlwood leans aldehydic, which means a slight metallic shimmer beneath the bark and oakmoss. The shimmer feels warm rather than cold, like the glint of sun on old wood rather than anything synthetic.Burlwood
    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
