H&M H&M Santalum is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Olivier Pescheux. H&M Santalum opens with Myrtle, Cypress, and Pine, settles into a heart of White Flowers, Jasmine, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Sandalwood. H&M's H&M Santalum carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is H&M's undisputed gem, a creamy sandalwood stunner that punches way above its price point. It's a genuine shame it's discontinued because the community absolutely adores it, comparing it to niche fragrances and mourning its scarcity.

Scent Profile

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.

Its moderate performance and inoffensive, clean sandalwood profile make it ideal for office and casual wear, as many reviews highlight its suitability for work. While it's lovely, it's generally too subtle for formal events and not energetic enough for sport.

About

Opens with an airy, green freshness from cypress and pine, subtly hinting at crisp woodland. This quickly softens into a creamy, milky heart where delicate white florals and a touch of sweet peach emerge. The star of the show, a warm and inviting sandalwood, dominates the base, blended seamlessly with soft musk and a whisper of cedar, creating a comforting and slightly sensual skin scent.
