Guys!What...how does sandalwood supposed to smell like?I can't pinpoint that note in my frags at all.Feel like getting a sandalwood based frag just to learn about it.

I've not touched EN for months!Damn..got too caught up in vanillic stuffs recently.I miss my resins!

Girls tend to dig vanilla scent as its an aphrodisiac...

Google 'vanilla aphrodisiac scent' :)

For the moment I'm wearing green and vanilla scent tends to attract insects outfield so now i'm wearing those with insect repellent properties like resins/pine/cedar/frankincense...

Just seeing 'Dirty orange + vetiver' make me imagining I'm smelling Terre De Hermes already =.=

My fav is from ADP Mandorlo Di Sicilia,really thick and creamy vanilla with almonds.I also love YSL's Opium and Bvlgari Black.

Don't think I need anymore vanilla based frags LOL!

Mmmm must give the ADP a shot one of these days

The only perfume FB group I'm a member of is FFF.

Uh regarding sandalwood, in perfumes, it's usually milky, woody, soft and being a very good fixative, it's usually a basenote. To make it easier to differentiate, test a few scents at the store that has "santal" in its name and figure it out from the test strips after the top notes have vaporised.

From essential oil itself though, to me, it's woody, sharp and slightly medicinal.

Terre d'hermes is one of my top 3 hated perfumes. If someone gives it to me, I'll smash it to the ground. No offense to those who loves it, I just hate it that much.

Yea usually its a basenote probably the main reason I can't really tell.Cedar and vetiver not a problem...just sandalwood.

I actually hated it when I sampled it but I prefer the harsher pepper in UDV Action.

Darn it..the urge to get a new frag.
I don't actually need Dior Homme since I already have D600.

It's between DH and Lancome Hypnose.Anybody tried Hypnose before?
