When I wear Original Santal I like to spray around 7 times as it doesn't project huge and it is a more intimate scent. I prefer to wear this scent on a night out with the fiancée at a steakhouse but it could be a scent you could wear anytime and anywhere. Very playful and sweet scent that draws attention to those that are close to you. This one I rank right up there with Aventus, GIT, and EROLFA, very intimate and classy sweet scent!

What a cologne, I can only wear this cologne when I get out of the barbershop and I have something important to do. This cologne has a mix of all the notes that I love and they go together so well it’s crazy. It has a top note of Orange Tree Absolute, Jamaican Ginger, Sicilian Lemon a mid note of Lavender, Peppermint, Rosemary, Pink Berries and a base note of Mysore Sandalwood, Virginia Cedar, Vanilla, Siam Benzoin, Ambergris, Tonkin Musk. This is currently my #1 cologne in my collection and believe me I have a lot of them. This was a gift from my girl and I’m still thanking her to this day.

As long as it’s not Florida heat, one smart cologne from the niche house of Creed is Original Santal. Yes it is considered unisex by some, but to me it leans masculine. The juniper berries are playful, but what makes this so elegant is the sandalwood. That combination makes it a wonderful choice for casual or formal occasions. This may not be the so hyped Adventus, but I think this one has much more of an impact. Musk and ginger push this out. While sillage is not mind blowing, it’s strong enough to provide a classy aroma for up to eight hours. There’s also a hint of lavender and vanilla during the dry down. This comes into prominence at hour two, and it is among my favorites. Definitely don’t blind buy it, but if you’re looking for a refined and distinctive ... MoreAs long as it’s not Florida heat, one smart cologne from the niche house of Creed is Original Santal.

Beautiful Warm Woody & Spicy scent.

It is a beautiful, warm scent. Ideal for spring & autumn. Its noticeable, has mild projection (within arms distance), and lasts about 4 hours strongly, but still noticeable at 6hours, then its a skin scent.

Creed Original Santal

This is a beautiful fragrance! It is regularly mentioned that you can find cheaper brands that smell the same. This is not entirely true, Creed’s masterful perfumer’s have perfectly balanced all the notes to provide a beautiful and noticeable scent while maintaining a gentle and sophisticated sillage. High quality product and possibly the hidden gem among Creed fragrances. Creed Original Santal can easily pass as a unisex fragrance

Lovely scent

This is Original Santal to my nose. This is exactly how I remember smelling it on my wrist not too long ago. I think this oil is a winner. There's a bit of spicy element up top along with that linen like freshness. It is still very soapy and clean just like Individuel by Montblanc.I did get about 5 to 6hr longevity with the oil with soft sillage. Overall, this is a must have for office wear or casual wear to uplift your mood and spirit. Good job on this one OP!

Smells just like Original Santal by Creed

Like the fact that these oils aren't runny or sticky. They glide on nicely and the real smell kicks in after about five minutes or so. Then you get the full gamut of what is in this perfume oil made just right. Very long lasting smell by the way. I only reapply after about 4 or 5 hours and I believe that is a personal choice, not a must as the perfume fragrance lingers on in this oil and I even smell it in my clothing the next day when I put them in to wash. Excellent choice at a great price considering what these original perfumes costs.

Smooth, Warm and Spicy

I thoroughly enjoy the warm, spicy olfactive notes of sandalwood, ginger, and cinnamon, combined with the sweetness of oriental vanilla.The sillage leaves a pleasant and soft trail of woody-aroma of Tonka Bean, musk, and cedar wood, all of which makes for a pleasant all-day fragrance for pretty much any occasion, despite formality.Highly recommended with the after shave and scented oil of the same fragrance to maintain a protracted presence of parfum.

Spring

Go to spring fragrance. The scent is not long lasting. But I still love it. My second time purchasing the Santal. 4/30/24 I’d like to add. I use the fragrance coupled with a second fragrance.

sophisticated scent

This scent I love. We received it as a sample before purchasing the full size, and after smelling this on my husband I tried it on myself. Love how subtle and non-offense the fragrance is, yet it has a sophisticated and memorable smell. I dislike fragrances that are so strong that all you can smell is the scent, this on the other hand smells like the cologne/perfume is a part of you. I purchased this for my husband but I hope he will share. Splurge!
