Blossom Perfumery 492 Santal 33 is an Eau de Parfum. 492 Santal 33 opens with Cardamom, settles into a heart of Iris and Violet, and dries down to a base of Papyrus, Leather, Amber, and Cedar. Blossom Perfumery's 492 Santal 33 carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

492 chases Le Labo's Santal 33 smoky-leather-sandalwood signature closely, but the ambroxan-driven creaminess and skin-hugging smokiness of the original are traded for a flatter, more generic woody-powdery accord that fades faster.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

492 is built around the same sandalwood-leather-cardamom core that made Le Labo's Santal 33 a modern cult classic. The papyrus and cedar in the base do a reasonable job of echoing the original's dry, smoky woodiness, and the violet-iris heart adds a similar powdery softness. What's missing is the synthetic sandalwood-ambroxan trick that gives Santal 33 its uniquely creamy, almost leathery-skin quality and enormous projection - 492 reads as a solid, competent woody-leather scent rather than that specific, much-imitated texture. Longevity and sillage are noticeably more modest, settling into a soft skin scent within a couple of hours rather than the original's famous room-filling trail.
