Feminine Sandalwood Scent
Well.. I have now arrived at clean fragrances, and Santal Calling by Ex Nihilo is my favorite from this brand.
How would I describe it? The well-groomed skin of a young woman: clean, soft, and lightly moisturized. The combination of sandalwood, floral creaminess, and a subtle, not sweet vanilla note gives it a fresh yet feminine character. Hard to describe. Although it somehow reminded me at first of Santal 33 by Le Labo (probably because of the sandalwood), it develops quite differently throughout the day. The sillage is above average with this scent.
The fragrance is excellently balanced and impresses with its clarity. In contrast to other sandalwood scents that are often heavy and sweet, here the sandalwood comes through clearly, fresh, and with a remarkable lightness. This is mainly due to the spiciness of nutmeg, which gives the fragrance a transparent note. The iris provides a gentle, crystalline floral quality that takes away the typical heaviness of the sandalwood and makes it appear ethereal. Musk adds a warm, soft depth, while a milky-vanilla accord contributes a delicate, lactonic sweetness.
The result is a very high-quality and balanced fragrance with an intelligent, stylish understatement. For me, it's a scent for every day and also for going out.
The bottle doesn't quite match my taste, but the sprayer is excellent.
