The Story

Launched in 2019 by François Demachy, Sandalo Eau de Parfum by Acqua di Parma is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that seamlessly blends Italian elegance with modern sophistication. The composition opens with bright citrus and aromatic notes of Calabrian bergamot and lemon, followed by lavender and cardamom, creating an invigorating freshness. This fresh opening gives way to the warmth of sandalwood and tonka bean, grounded by amber, resulting in a harmonious balance that feels both classic and contemporary.

Application Tips

This fragrance has a long-lasting quality and moderate sillage. A single spritz is sufficient to ensure that the woody base notes develop fully over time. Sandalo Eau de Parfum works best when applied closer to skin, where its warmth can be appreciated up close rather than diffusing into a larger space.

François Demachy portrait
I grew up in Grasse. The raw materials of perfumery are my mother tongue.

François Demachy is the in-house perfumer-creator at Christian Dior, a title that places him among the most influential noses in the world. Born in Cannes and raised in Grasse — the historic capital of perfumery — he carries the craft in his blood. Before joining Dior in 2006, he spent two decades at Chanel. At Dior, Demachy has reimagined the house's olfactory heritage while pushing it forward, creating Sauvage (now the world's best-selling men's fragrance), Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet, and the prestigious La Collection Privée series.
