What do reviewers say about Santal Vanille and Piano Santal?
It wears like a cashmere sweater that's been left in the sun. Creamy, warm, with cedar that keeps everything from getting too sweet. The coconut doesn't shield you from the sandalwood, it just makes.Santal Vanille
This is a skin-enhancer dressed in sandalwood. No screaming projection here, but the longevity on clothes is surprisingly strong. Cumin in the heart gives it a subtle edge that keeps it from feeling.Piano Santal
