Sandalwood Perfumes & Colognes: 9,146 Fragrances With Sandalwood

Sandalwood perfumes are among the most common in our catalog: sandalwood appears in 9,146 fragrances, 90% of the time as a base note. Sandalwood is a smooth, creamy, softly sweet wood with a milky warmth. Natural Mysore sandalwood is scarce, so most perfumes use Australian sandalwood or synthetics, and it serves as a long-lasting base note. It is most often paired with ylang-ylang, carnation and jasmine, and these perfumes tend to be floral and spicy. Well-known examples include L'Homme Idéal by Guerlain, L'Aventure Knight by Al Haramain and Club de Nuit Sillage by Armaf.
