villa suburbana
A beige aesthetic sandalmusk polished with plastic-toned saffron. I have a type and that type is fake wood!! As a Santal 33 Big Bottle owner, I love this genre. This is the scent of a Lincoln log McMansion, more plywood and laminate than actual tree. It’s sweet, it’s clean, it’s got central heating. Takes me back to the B&BW “Sensual Amber” line of the 2000s (be still my heart). Feels like the sawdust static counterpart to the white noise of Fugazzi’s Angel Dust. Unfortunately didn’t last more than two hours on my skin, but I will go out of my way to spritz whenever I pass through Sephora.
Mental Snapshot: It’s 2005. You’re at your friend’s Tuscan-style house in the bougie subdivision. (They have an island in their kitchen!). Everything’s mahogany, granite, and wrought iron. And a whole lot of biscuit, buff, and beige. They have a home theatre. You sink into a brown pleather sectional. It smells like this.
tl;dr: model home musk
