Here, the name says it all. It has classic sandalwood, like what you used to find in perfumes, not that creamy-coconut stuff.

Sandalwood! Jasmine plays a minor role. Still, I also remember other (more natural?) qualities from the 80s.

..Sandalwood...Sandalwood...a hint of jasmine, creamy, lightly fresh. There have been nicer Cotys, but sandalwood is rarely my thing.

Initially a pleasant, slightly fruity synthetic sandalwood scent, which becomes increasingly artificial and sharp over time due to Norlimbanol.

Super authentic sandalwood. My scent when I want to relax or lift my mood. Also very elegant yet great for everyday use (unisex).
