Magic Oud Sandal Wood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020. Sandal Wood opens with Neroli and Jasmine, settles into a heart of Rose, Cinnamon, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Amber, and Sandalwood. Magic Oud's Sandal Wood carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Skip this one if you're not into a hefty dose of powdery sandalwood. It's a proper statement, maybe too much for some, but offers a sophisticated warmth that's hard to ignore. Definitely one for those who want their presence known.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Built on woody, powdery and warm spicy - a composition that sits best in spring, autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its prominent woody and powdery accords, combined with a noticeable sillage, make it a bit much for a quiet office, scoring moderately for formal events but shining on a date. Its warmth and depth are best suited for evenings or cooler weather, rather than casual daytime wear or sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

It kicks off with a bright, clean burst of neroli and jasmine, a fleeting floral introduction before diving headfirst into a rich, powdery heart. Rose and a hint of cinnamon temper the sweetness of peach, quickly becoming a plush, warm embrace. The dry down is where it truly settles, a deep, resonant blend of creamy sandalwood, musky leather, and a whisper of oud, rounded out by amber's golden glow. It feels smooth, woody, and undeniably luxurious.
