The review

On paper, Original Santal is a strong bet if you want Original Santal for less.

Oil Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Original Santal's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $133 per 100ml it costs 82% less than Original Santal — the 3rd cheapest of 3 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.

Value9.1
Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Oil 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

The original opens on cardamom, coriander and pink pepper, turns to cinnamon, nutmeg and orange, and settles into sandalwood, Tonka Bean and vanilla. That is the brief Original Santal is working from.

Top

  • cardamom
  • coriander
  • pink pepper

Heart

  • cinnamon
  • nutmeg
  • orange

Base

  • sandalwood
  • Tonka Bean
  • vanilla
Creamy sandalwood wrapped in cinnamon, cardamom and vanilla for cozy comfort.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 3 twins of Creed Original Santal we can price, Original Santal is number 3 on price per 100ml.

  1. 01 Zoha Aroma Original Santal $108/100ml
  2. 02 Alexandria Fragrances Santal Silk $117/100ml
  3. 03 Oil Perfumery Original Santal $133/100ml
