The review

On paper, Santal 33 is a reasonable bet if you want Santal 33 for less.

Oil 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 $150 per 100ml it costs 70% less than Santal 33 — the 31st cheapest of 31 twins we can price.

Evidence7.0

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, iris and violet, turns to ambrox and papyrus, and settles into sandalwood, cedar and leather. That is the brief Santal 33 is working from.

Top

  • cardamom
  • iris
  • violet

Heart

  • ambrox
  • papyrus

Base

  • sandalwood
  • cedar
  • leather
For the modern nomad. Dry cardamom and iris give way to creamy sandalwood and leather — the cult signature of a generation.
