Alfred Dunhill Indian Sandalwood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Indian Sandalwood opens with Carrot and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Oakmoss and Orris, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Alfred Dunhill's Indian Sandalwood carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Dunhill's Indian Sandalwood is a polarising affair. Some hail it as a creamy, authentic sandalwood dream, while others dismiss it as a disappointing, weak, and synthetic varnish. If you value a soft, close-wearing scent, it might just work.

The sophisticated woody and powdery accords also lend themselves well to these environments, though its lack of power limits its formal appeal.

About

Opens with a hint of earthy carrot and bright bergamot, leading into a powdery heart of orris and oakmoss. The dry-down is dominated by a smooth, creamy sandalwood, underpinned by an earthy blend of patchouli and cypriol oil. It's a complex woody scent with a soft, natural feel, though some find it linear.
