Legno di Sandalo by Compagnia Delle Indie

So, you like Sandalwood dominant scents that blanket the skin in a somewhat oily fashion? If the answer is yes, then this release will fit the bill. I could find no listed accords for this particular rendition, but there are notes for "Sandalo" by the same house. I won't use them however because what transpires on my skin does not reflect the "Sandalo" accords.

The presence is substantial, but is more a personal space fragrance after 5 minutes. Sounds like a contradiction, but the fact is that Legno di Sandalo is simple, straightforward and no frills. The sandalwood feels to be blended with cedar and I seem to detect rosewood as well. ...
