Santal's Kiss

by Hany Hafez

Alexandria Fragrances Santal's Kiss is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Hany Hafez. Santal's Kiss settles into a heart of Violet, Cardamom, Amber, and Iris. Alexandria Fragrances's Santal's Kiss carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some swear it's a dead ringer for Santal 33, even outperforming it, while others are utterly underwhelmed. Expect a woody-spicy scent that's either a fantastic value proposition or a confusing letdown.

About

Santal's Kiss opens with a fresh, slightly green woody blast, quickly settling into a creamy, powdery sandalwood heart. Cardamom lends a warm, spicy kick, while violet and iris add a sophisticated floral powderiness. A subtle, soft leather note grounds the composition, creating an inviting, woody-aromatic character that's comforting and smooth.
