Scent Notes
Sandalwood, Milk, Ambrette (Musk Mallow), Carrot, Cedarwood, Copaiba
Sacred Wood unfolds with a warm, inviting character that immediately captures the essence of refined minimalism. The opening establishes an amber woody foundation, rich and contemplative, drawing you into a quietly confident sensory experience.
What follows is the luminous heart of sandalwood—creamy, buttery, and timelessly elegant. This noble note becomes the emotional core of the fragrance, unfolding across the skin with a gentle sophistication that speaks to restraint and intentionality. The sandalwood breathes slowly, revealing its natural warmth without overwhelming the composition.
The base settles into a subtle milk accord, creating a warm skin-level presence that lingers for 6–8 hours with noticeable sillage. This tender, almost intimate finishing note transforms the fragrance into a second skin—present but never demanding. Perfect for mild to warm climates where the scent can fully bloom, Sacred Wood performs best as a personal fragrance that draws others closer rather than announces itself from across the room.
