Which Should You Buy?
Santal Royal is a rich, complex scent that beautifully balances oud, rose, and sandalwood. It's a divisive one for some, with reformulations causing a stir, but many find it a sophisticated choice for cooler weather.
Royal Oud is Aromara's take on Dior Oud Ispahan, a regal rose-and-oud from the Privé collection - rose and saffron opening into an oud-patchouli-amber heart over sandalwood and cedarwood. Built at 35% Extrait.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
This heavy, long-lasting scent leans formal and is best suited for special events or date nights where you want to make an impression. Its intense woods, oud, and leather are too potent for everyday office wear or casual settings, especially given its strong sillage.
