Santal 33
Le Labo Santal 33 is an eau de parfum in the woody, powdery and leather family, with a warm, spiced character that has been a signature of the house since its launch in 2011. The opening is a bright, slightly spiced lift of cardamom over a soft violet note. It gives way to a powdery floral heart built around iris. As the fragrance settles, the woody base takes over, with dry, creamy sandalwood wrapped in leather and a warm, resinous amber. The overall effect is smoky and comforting rather than sweet, and the leather and spice give it a distinctive edge.
It suits daytime errands, relaxed plans or a night out, and it moves easily from one setting to another, including more professional occasions. Its woody warmth feels especially natural in autumn and winter, though it is worn across all four seasons. The eau de parfum tends to carry strongly, so a small amount is usually enough, and it generally lasts well through a full day. It is a unisex scent for anyone who enjoys a fragrance with character and a quiet, lingering depth.
