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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

Spring and fall tie in the FragDB season votes, with winter close behind and summer rarely chosen. The dry, herbal character supports a cool-weather lean without excluding mild summer use.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Daytime votes lead night, and wearers describe a dry, formal character. This supports office and composed daytime use; the medicinal opening and restrained, old-fashioned profile make sport or a sweet date scent a weaker fit.

About

Sandalwood is a traditional Cologne with a striking contrast between its opening and its drydown. D. R. Harris names the product as a Cologne and describes its defining material as sandalwood. Wearers repeatedly pick out eucalyptus and camphor at the start, calling the effect green, clean and medicinal. The sandalwood then becomes quieter and drier. One account describes it as a delicate base rather than a heavy sandalwood cloud, while another says the opening recedes and leaves a dry, formal impression. This is not a sweet or polished modern interpretation; it keeps the crisp, austere character of a classic grooming scent. The available note records list more materials, but they do not provide enough shared phase evidence to place those names responsibly in the structured pyramid. The dossier therefore records only the notes for which wearers describe a clear position: eucalyptus and camphor up front, sandalwood at the base. The source list and this limitation are retained in the research record. Performance reports are mixed. The largest Fragrantica longevity category is moderate, and a smaller group reports weak wear. One reviewer estimates four to six hours, while another says the Cologne fades quickly; the latter also discusses the separate aftershave, so those two products are not conflated here. Moderate sillage is the most common vote, though stronger and intimate reports are also present. These small samples support a moderate expectation, not a promise of fixed hours or distance. Spring and fall lead the seasonal votes, with winter close behind and few summer votes. Daytime receives more votes than night, and the dry, formal descriptions make this an easy fit for office or composed everyday wear. D. R. Harris sells the Cologne in several bottle sizes, including a two millilitre spray; those are size options for the same Cologne, not separate concentration records. Current UK listings place its 50 millilitre bottle at £47 and its 100 millilitre bottle at £63, supporting the Mid price tier.
