The review
Worth a try. That is where Sandal Woods lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Tam Dao.
The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Tam Dao's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand 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: cypress and rosewood up top, sandalwood, cedar and myrtle in the middle, amber, musk and spices underneath — the shape of Diptyque Tam Dao.
Top
- cypress
- rosewood
Heart
- sandalwood
- cedar
- myrtle
Base
- amber
- musk
- spices
For the one who retreats into a hushed cedar temple, dry, creamy sandalwood and soft woods radiating calm, meditative warmth all day.
