Christopher Sheldrake

"Santal majuscule is a warm, creamy sandalwood fragrance built around the contrast of smooth wood, Turkish rose, and cacao. The composition presents sandalwood as its central material, giving the fragrance a polished, soft, and enveloping character. Rose adds an elegant floral lift, while cacao contributes a subtle dark gourmand nuance rather than a straightforward chocolate effect. Its overall profile is amber woody, with powdery and creamy facets that become increasingly apparent as the fragrance dries down. The scent is sensual and romantic without being strongly gendered, making it suitable for both men and women. It is presented as an Eau de Parfum and remains part of Serge Lutens' active Collection Noire offering."

Reviews Summary

“A rich, warm, romantic sandalwood fragrance in which Turkish rose and cacao create a smooth, creamy, powdery, and subtly gourmand effect. The sandalwood becomes more prominent and elegant during the drydown, while the rose and cacao prevent the composition from feeling purely woody or overly sweet.”
