The review
Worth a try. That is where Marlboro Man lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Santal 33.
Scentual Obsessions 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 $133 per 100ml it costs 73% less than Santal 33 — the 30th 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 Scentual Obsessions 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
What it is chasing: cardamom, iris and violet up top, ambrox and papyrus in the middle, sandalwood, cedar and leather underneath — the shape of Le Labo Santal 33.
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.
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 42 twins of Le Labo Santal 33 we can price, Marlboro Man is number 30 on price per 100ml.
