      Santal de Kandy (2018) • BOUCHERON🔺, ScentAdvice

      This was a fun surprise among my random sampling. Boucheron Santal de Kandy is, as the name suggests, a sandalwood, but very heavy on the spices and florals as well.

      You pretty much get the picture that the notes above paint. Cardamom is probably the most forward scent in this fragrance, especially in the opening.

      There’s a sweet, cozy sandalwood underneath. It’s even a bit smoky,

      However, minutes in, it starts to veer into a slightly fresher, more floral take. Not quite the cucumber-sandalwood from Le Labo Santal 33 or Guerlain Santal Pao Rosa, but there is a freshness here.

      Really pleasant scent profile, albeit familiar. A cozy, well-balanced sweet and spicy sandalwood that isn’t cloying or harsh.
