Sandalo by Etro is a classic study in the drier, more traditional side of sandalwood. It opens with an immediate burst of bitter orange and lemon, though this isn't a bright, modern citrus; it feels more like a vintage apothecary shelf. The addition of petitgrain and lavender gives the opening a herbal, slightly medicinal sharpness that quickly settles into a sturdy heart of cedarwood and patchouli. As the fragrance evolves, the Mysore sandalwood takes center stage. This isn't the creamy, sweetened sandalwood found in many contemporary perfumes. Instead, it feels textural and authentic, backed by a dusty lilac note that adds an unexpected floral nuance to the wood. The dry down introduces a subtle warmth through amber and vanilla, though these remain in the background to provide a smooth landing for the spicy, woody core. Wearing it feels like stepping into a wood-paneled study—it is composed, grounded, and undeniably mature.
