Adam Michael has this to say “I purchased this batch of Mysore sandalwood in 2023. This is actually material from a sandalwood producer’s private collection and it offers something a little different profile wise. This aromatic is very raw smelling, almost crude woody in the opening to my nose, with nutty, non-sweet milky, and warm peppered spiced qualities that really pop from the strip for the first hour. I perceive this sandalwood as an aromatic that would best suit fans of wild Indian animalic geared ouds as this is a sandalwood that’s extremely raw, dirty, non-conforming, edgy, dark and super masculine throughout.

The heart does soften off a little, allowing for creamy spiced milk pudding and bread pudding notes to come through over the top of the raw woody character – of which is the backbone of this Mysore sandalwood. Dry down, creamy woody, milky, trace sweet hues and soft spice orientated. Strip longevity days, applied to skin I advise diluting down prior as the strength is full on from the word go, in such form I get just under 4 hours on my skin type from a swipe, wood obtained legally, subject to volume or weight, the colour is pale yellow through to dark yellow. As always regarding blending, sandalwood can be everyone’s best friend, however its worth noting this sandalwood pairs like a marriage made in heaven with our Turkish rose absolute, Chinese jasmine sambac and our Indian Assam Oud (original release). Wholesale prices represent exceptional value for money.”
