The review
492 scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Santal 33.
Blossom Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Santal 33's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $34 per 100ml it costs 93% less than Santal 33 — the 6th cheapest of 31 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Blossom Perfumery publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Le Labo Santal 33 is cardamom, iris and violet at first, ambrox and papyrus at its heart and sandalwood, cedar and leather at the end. Blossom Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

For the modern nomad. Dry cardamom and iris give way to creamy sandalwood and leather — the cult signature of a generation.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
