Essential ParfumsOrange X Santal3.770 ratingsPhotorealistic bitter orange. Warm, fresh, beautiful. But I might need to apply a couple sprays more. Or it’s because of the ramen cooking currently that I don’t smell much of orange x Santal 😂
Wore it on June 7, 2026

I’ve a sample of this yet to try. Would you say it leans masculine?

Hm, good question. I’ve applied it about an hour ago, for reference. The opening is a lot of that bitter orange. I’d say it’s pretty tart the first few minutes but I find it eases into a very unisex fragrance. I’d love this on my wife but I’m also not the least afraid to wear it myself. Hope this helps

This one is sadly not for me. The orange is too bitter, the sandalwood is not creamy enough, and it's just not working with my skin chemistry. In theory I love these notes but something is missing.

It feels light but the scent surrounded me a bit (I did 2 spritzes on inner arms) and stayed for 3 hours before starting to weaken. It’s more cozy and gentle instead of a bright orange. No vanilla or

This is slowly becoming my post-run dumb reach office freshie. You’d think the endorphins after the workout is great. But layering them with bitter orange and sandalwood? That’s like sea salt to
