Sandalwood

What it smells like

Sandalwood smells creamy, smooth and softly woody, like warm milk poured over freshly cut pale wood. There is a gentle sweetness and a faint milky, almost buttery quality, with a quiet spiciness that keeps it from feeling flat. It is calm and meditative rather than sharp or dry, and it lingers on the skin for hours. Perfumers use it as a base note to add a rounded, comforting warmth and to bind brighter notes into a soft, lasting finish.
