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

Santal Mistral opens with a unique, dusty sweetness from immortelle, hinting at something akin to coffee powder. This quickly settles into a woody heart of patchouli and cedar, wrapped in warm, powdery labdanum. The base is an inviting blend of creamy sandalwood, rich vanilla, and golden amber, grounded by earthy vetiver. It's a warm, sweet, and predominantly woody composition with a noticeable balsamic and powdery touch.
