This is the one I had big expectations for. I cannot help it, when it comes to sandalwood I’m very partial and very critical at the same time. Who knows me also know my moaning for old formula of Samsara… I love love love first Samsara from 1990!! Since then I often subconsciously searched for a radiant, smooth, creamy and feminine sandalwood, but this world decided that Mysore sandalwood was too much of a fine material for the folks. Too harvested, too expensive. Ok, so now we are left with deciding which chemical replacer is better over the other ones.
That said Merchant of Venice’s Sandalwood came with a good vibe and it’s good enough for me as single EdT. It works well with my chemistry and it’s not harsh. I wanted to layer it with their Jasmine (a little fruity) and the combo did well on my skin while reproducing a small fraction of Samsara. A good one IMO.
