santal woods comes from the australian bush, where the bark sits warm in the sun all afternoon.
a walk through old woodland
picture a stand of old trees a long way from town.
the ground is dry. the bark has been baking all afternoon.
somewhere off in the distance, someone has lit a fire.
it smells of earth, a little smoke and warm timber.
nothing about it is loud.
it feels like it has been there for a very long time.
from the bush to the bottle
- the bark: creamy sandalwood and virginia cedar, the backbone of the scent
- the smoke: cardamom adds a dry spice, like a fire you can smell before you see
- the softness: violet and iris round off the wood, so it never turns harsh
- the trail: amber and papyrus linger, like dry timber and worn leather
