  A minimalist, simple, and very pleasant perfume. It’s sandalwood-based and invites you to disconnect. It’s discreet; if you test it alongside others, it’s the typical one that’s hard to smell and appreciate because it doesn’t stand out and fades easily. The scent stays close to the skin but lasts longer than you’d think, quite a while. As a curiosity, this perfume has made me want to explore more fragrances with dominant sandalwood. It lives up to its name: it evokes cleanliness, whiteness, snow, and purity. When I finish my Pafory vial, I’ll probably buy the full bottle.

  In this, you smell things others don’t mention, so there must be nuances in the sandalwood I can’t identify. The opening feels herbal, aromatic, and with a spicy peppery touch, almost too strong for my nose, which threatened to sneeze if I got too close in the first half hour. Then it quickly changes to a purely woody perfume where the sandalwood takes charge. It also smells a bit of talc, and over time a velvety musk emerges that rounds it off. It has a moderate trail and lasts about 8 hours. It’s unisex, though after the opening it’s not one of my favourite woods. Smell 6/10, longevity 8/10, trail 7.5/10, value for money 6/10, versatility 6/10, packaging 6/10. Would I buy it again? I haven’t bought it.

  One of the cleanest and whitest sandalwoods I’ve tried. Even people who usually dislike this note might find it suits them. At first, there’s a super bright bergamot, followed by a very friendly musk that is neither too clean nor animalic. On my skin, it dries down with a milky touch that is very comforting. It’s clean but warm, ideal for daytime and 100% unisex. It lasts around 6-7 hours with a soft trail. I liked it very much, but as I already have similar ones, I’m not buying it now.

  Creamy sandalwood with a smoky touch that conveys purity. It starts with a bright but fleeting bergamot, giving way to a rare hit of musky sandalwood. The projection is moderate for about half an hour, then it clings to the skin until six hours later. It’s very generic; for the price and longevity, it’s not worth it. Minimal and simple, but totally unisex. If you wear it with linen in summer, you’ll love it.
