  • I say this is one of the greats and deserves some attention!
    A stunning composition that starts off so fresh and uplifting, but it's sitting on a sturdy woody backbone. At the heart is a milky sandalwood that creates a soft powdery touch, but the spices of cloves, nutmeg, and pepper give it a zingy and masculine twist. There's also aromatic lavender that cuts through and keeps the fragrance fresh and wearable all year long. Some cardamom, vanilla, and resins to give it a warm, seductive sweetness. Definitely cozy, classy, and alluring at the same time.

    still one of my personal favorites. just picked up Santal Intense, the edp version, and its everything you'd love about the edt, but longer lasting and projects better.

    Hi when I was watching the review on this cologne I decided to order it. When it came in and I’m really quite surprised at just how good it really is. Sometimes as you know Floris, Acqua Di Parma are very heavy on the front with green, earth, notes. But this one is blended so that the green is milder and the sandalwood find a perfect blend that work perfect together. I bought the EDT but I’m going to get the EDP right away. O man it’s good. Thanks!

    Nice review, I think this is more up my ally as opposed to 1962 which has been sadly discontinued. Edit: ended up buying this on sale and I am so happy its my new signature scent.

    Floris Santal is similar to Gucci Envy and the 1999 Carven Homme. All three fragrances are outstanding.

    Man, I love seeing your reviews and feel that I can blind-buy any fragrance that you view favorably. I will have to look into that one because it I have Layton Eclusif, but want something a little lighter with a twist.

    I just bought Acqua di Parma Sandalo EDC thanks to you and I really love it! How it is Floris Santal related to AdP Sandalo EDC and do you consider that it is worthy to have them both?

  • @MisterChris1978

    Hello! A little late on the channel, but if you see this comment: is this one an unisex fragrance or is it more masculine? What do you think? Because you described that it’s soft and there is a sweet note as well… so I was wondering 😊

      @@llchaves Santal was a bit of a disappointment for me. But Neroli Voyage is very good if you like Neroli. It has a very strong and persistent neroli accord. That is a bit unusual for a Floris scent, as this house is characteristically understated.

      It's definitely gentlemanly and classy but not old-fashioned. Not like an out dated fragrance anyway. I think it's amazing, but it's very subtile and not one of those loud sceamers.

    Had high hopes that this would be a reliable if not fantastic scent. Was sadly mistaken. It smells like dirty moss, no thanks.
