The story behind the bottle.
Santal Wood by Ajmal was launched in 2014 and embodies the brand's mastery of creating captivating fragrances. This Oriental Woody composition balances bright spices with rich woods, opening with a blend of cumin and cardamom that gives way to marigold and rose. The base notes of sandalwood, agarwood (oud), and patchouli provide a warm, balsamic finish. Santal Wood is neither too loud nor understated, making it versatile for various occasions.
Given its moderate sillage and long-lasting nature, one or two sprays will suffice. The fragrance develops best close to skin, so aim for pulse points like your wrists and neck. It pairs well with both casual and formal settings.
