Lorenzo Villoresi Sandalo is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1995, created by Lorenzo Villoresi. Sandalo opens with Lemon, Orange, Petitgrain, and Rosewood, settles into a heart of Neroli, Sandalwood, Rose, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Lorenzo Villoresi's Sandalo carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Sandalo is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a profound, meditative sandalwood masterpiece; for others, a harsh, old-fashioned, or even unpleasant experience. Expect vintage vibes and a distinctive, dry take on sandalwood.

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.

About

Opens with a bright, aromatic burst of lemon, orange, and lavender, underpinned by the woody warmth of rosewood. This transitions to a heart where dry, creamy sandalwood emerges, softened by delicate rose and rich labdanum. The base deepens with earthy vetiver, patchouli, and oakmoss, sweetened by amber and a hint of musk, leaving a warm, resinous, and subtly powdery trail.
