Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Inspired by Santal 33
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Le Labo's Santal 33 (2011) - the Frank Voelkl sandalwood-cardamom-violet niche composition that became Le Labo's defining signature and a 2010s unisex icon, here translated into a violet-cardamom opening over iris-ambrox and a sandalwood-cedarwood close. Honest dupe-fidelity for unisex daily wear at a fraction of the niche price.

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Le Labo Santal 33 (2011) - violet, sandalwood and leather translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
