Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Santalum EDP
Prepare for a proper love-it-or-hate-it situation with Santalum. Some will swoon over its creamy, pure sandalwood, while others will find it underwhelming, weak, or even a bit metallic. It's subtle, so don't expect fireworks.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Just Sandalwood EDP
Just Sandalwood is a soft, creamy woody single note - milky and warm rather than the sharper synthetic sandalwood used in many mass-market scents. A comforting base note fragrance for fans of understated woods.
