Nº 18 Santal Tintoretto
Fragrance notes
Character
Sunlight hits the pale stone of a courtyard wall, and the air carries a cool, saline edge from the nearby coast. Seaweed and lavender open the scene with a clean, herbal freshness that feels pulled straight from the breeze. The lavender is soft rather than sharp, its aromatic clarity tempered by the damp, mineral quality of the ocean note. It is an unusual pairing that immediately sets a calm, open tone.
As the morning settles, sandalwood and patchouli rise from the skin. The sandalwood offers a smooth, creamy woodiness that grounds the composition, while the patchouli adds an earthy, root-like depth. Benzoin and vanilla wrap around these woods, providing a warm, balsamic sweetness that feels powdery and rich. The amber accord glows against the bright air, creating a contrast between the cool surroundings and the gentle heat of the scent.
This is a companion for a quiet walk through a sunlit garden or a slow hour spent reading near an open window. It fits the person who enjoys the smell of damp earth and warm wood mixing with a coastal wind. Wear it when the day is clear and the pace is unhurried, letting the blend of lavender and sandalwood move with you through the light.
