I should start by saying I don't really like sandalwood. This one is very nice. And ends with a lovely clean, slightly soapy drydown that I would enjoy wearing. If I had a bottle... well, I can see...

The best sandalwood fragrance I've ever smelled is Creed's discontinued Bois de Santal, but the best extant sandalwood is surely Lorenzo Villoresi's brilliant Sandalo. His creations tend by hectic...

Sandalwood and me have an iffy relationship, some good some bad, but the one sandal I can't tolerate in any ratio is Mysore sandalwood and this is pure Mysore. I can't properly rate it because I...

Interesting fragrance.... starts off very very loud, harsh on the dry woods... and on the vetiver. then a blast of Lavender, very fresh. Luckily it calms down rapidly to reveal some soft rose...

I agree with Paschat this is the epitomy of Unisex and although it's dark and substantial it's very short lived.Still it bears the quality trademark of Lorenzo Villoresi so after a lot of thought...

Complex fragrance. Herbal and fresh at first, probably due to the lavender and vetiver. Sandalwood plays a part, but not in the starring role. At first, I wondered why people liked this so much....

I was ready to write this one off based on the odious opening, which truly would have been a mistake. After a few minutes, one of the most beautiful mysore sandalwood scents emerges. I also detect...

Sandalo is a very dry powdery sandalwood fragrance, beautiful and feminine in the first hour, more handsome the rest of the time. My favorite sandalwood. I'd like home fragrance products in Sandalo.

Sandalwood done to perfection. Lorenzo Villoresi's Sandalo is a golden, slightly dry Mysore sandalwood that is pretty much as authentic as one is ever going to get. It's slightly resiny, and...

I don't think the words 'simple' or 'linear' exist in Mr. Villoresi's vocabulary. Probably would have to hand him a dictionary to look them up. He inevitably creates complex, multifaceted scents...

Fans of Mysore sandalwood will not wish to miss Villoresi's rendition. I would compare it to Serge Lutens' Santal de Mysore (another favourite of mine), except Villoresi's composition is more...

The opening notes are somewhat gaseous, I agree, and I actually liked it!!! Then the yummy rose comes through with sandalwood. It's a nice sandalwood, not spicy. Even though many notes are...

I love sandalwood, whether it's the "clean" smelling sandalwood or the woody, warm almost incensey variety, but not this. On me, Sandalo has a note like oily gasoline. Very harsh and a mishmash of...
