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.

Given its moderate projection and a universally appealing woody-fresh character, Santal Dune is perfectly suited for daily wear, from the office to casual outings. It's sophisticated enough for a date but might feel a touch too subdued for high-energy formal events or sports.

About

Santal Dune opens with a kick of fresh spice and crisp bergamot, a bright introduction before settling into its woody heart. Here, the dry, sun-baked cedar and creamy sandalwood take centre stage, crafting a warm, inviting embrace. As it fades, a soft, powdery musk mingles with a whisper of amberwood, leaving a clean, sophisticated trail that feels effortlessly classy.
