Two materials make it up. Sandalwood is the beginning and the end of the composition, creamy and soft grained, with that dry milky quality that makes it one of the most comforting materials in perfumery. Amber sits between the two sandalwood layers, adding a resinous golden warmth that rounds the wood off and gives it a little sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat is the whole thing, and in an oil format the simplicity makes sense. Oils sit on the skin rather than projecting into a room, so they reward materials that are rich enough to be interesting at close range, and sandalwood with amber is exactly that kind of pairing. Apply it to the wrists or behind the ears and expect it to last for most of the day without ever reaching very far. Nobody across a table will smell this unless they are close, which makes it well suited to work, to travel and to anyone who finds sprayed fragrance too much. It reads unisex and it suits any season. At 20ml this will last a long time given how little is needed per wearing, and it is a sensible way to try the traditional Gulf habit of wearing perfume as an oil, if you have only ever used alcohol based bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfnan is an Emirati perfumer established in 2007 that manufactures what it sells, which is less usual at this price than buying in a composition and putting a borrowed name on it. Its promoted favourites are the 9 AM family, and its collections number four, Turathi, Supremacy, Kiaana and Bouquet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Afnan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53292513460551,"sku":"BTS375388","price":32.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/bts375388.webp?v=1770436154","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/afnan-sandal-abiyad-concentrated-perfume-oil-20ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
