The review

Saont Red scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Santal Blush.

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

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $83 per 100ml it costs 63% less than Santal Blush — the 2nd 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.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour 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

Tom Ford Santal Blush is cumin, carrot seeds and cinnamon at first, sandalwood, jasmine and ylang-ylang at its heart and benzoin, patchouli and cedar at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • cumin
  • carrot seeds
  • cinnamon

Heart

  • sandalwood
  • jasmine
  • ylang-ylang

Base

  • benzoin
  • patchouli
  • cedar
Creamy sandalwood with a warm, spicy, skin-like heart; sensual, enveloping and softly floral.

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 4 twins of Tom Ford Santal Blush we can price, Saont Red is number 2 on price per 100ml.
