Floris London Santal Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Santal Intense opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Lavender, Clove, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Floris London's Santal Intense carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a smooth operator, a modern barbershop classic that smells divine. However, the 'Intense' moniker might be a bit ambitious for its performance, leaving some wishing for more projection and longevity.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Winter

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Formal
Also Works:
Date Casual

Its refined, clean scent makes it suitable for office and formal wear, leaning into its 'barbershop' charm. While pleasant for dates, its limited projection noted by reviewers means it won't dominate a casual setting or survive vigorous sport.

About

Santal Intense opens with a fresh, peppery kick, infused with green grass and bright citrus. This invigorating start mellows into an aromatic heart of lavender, nutmeg, and warm clove, evoking a classic, clean barbershop feel. The drydown unveils a sophisticated blend of creamy sandalwood, cedar, and vetiver, rounded out by subtle amber, vanilla, and a hint of spiritual frankincense, creating a smooth and subtly woody finish.
