My Sandalwood Scent
Once again, I wonder why such a beautiful fragrance receives so little attention here. Admittedly, it is a relatively new brand, with the oldest scent from Maison Incens dating back to 2014. The fragrances are all rated fairly well here, but still, only a few perfume enthusiasts own them.
I received a sample of this as part of a fragrance swap, and now I own a bottle. After the holidays with my oriental scents like Coco or Must, Santal Tislit was a welcome change on the first working day of the new year.
It starts with a zesty opening that quickly fades away. I don't notice much rose or jasmine. A smoky wood note follows, which lingers quite a while. Fortunately, it doesn't smell too much like smoke, but rather cozy. And it continues like this once the initial smoke has dissipated. Then, in the wake of the sandalwood, a wonderfully creamy and cuddly base emerges, resting on a woody, gentle sweetness. I can faintly detect the incense in the background. The scent is never intrusive or overpowering; instead, it conveys an absolute cuddle factor, especially now in this uncomfortable season with dreary weather. It is suitable for indoors and outdoors, and of course also for the upcoming freezing temperatures. I probably won't reach for it in spring or summer.
I categorize it less as floral-powdery and more as woody-sweet. The scent is harmonious and balanced - one searches in vain for sharp edges. Some may find this boring, but it doesn't bother me. In my opinion, definitely a recommendation for sandalwood fans to test!
