Kintsugi Perfumes - Santal – Eau de Parfum

Kintsugi Perfumes SANTAL Eau de Parfum

The quiet power of sandalwood

With SANTAL, Kintsugi Perfumes presents a fragrance that honors the timeless depth and serenity of sandalwood – warm, creamy, grounding and subtly seductive. This Eau de Parfum is a sensory meditation on balance, where elegance meets rawness, and stillness holds strength.

Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi, where broken pottery is mended with gold, SANTAL embraces the idea that true beauty lies in imperfection. Sandalwood, revered in many cultures as sacred, becomes more than a note – it becomes a symbol of wisdom, calm, and enduring grace.

A composition of clarity, spice and depth

The top note begins with a refined energy: cardamom, raspberry, and thyme awaken the senses in a dance of green spice, subtle sweetness, and herbal brightness. The cardamom lends a fresh, aromatic edge, the thyme offers a wild, slightly bitter contrast, and the raspberry softens it all with a surprising touch of light.

As the scent unfolds, iris emerges – powdery and elegant – guiding the composition into a smoother, floral softness. Then comes nagarmotha, its smoky-woody nature adding depth and an exotic, resinous body. Saffron threads through it all like gold – warm, radiant, and gently untamed.

Sandalwood at the heart – grounded and quietly seductive

The base is a tribute to sandalwood itself: creamy, soft and grounded in stillness. Castoreum brings a touch of animalic wildness, intensifying the wood’s natural sensuality. Leather adds structure and a deep warmth, anchoring the composition with elegant resilience that lasts for hours.

SANTAL is not a fragrance that shouts. It lingers with presence, depth, and calm authority. It’s made for those who walk with quiet strength – who value restraint over show, essence over surface.

At scent amor, SANTAL is more than a niche fragrance – it’s an olfactory signature for those who lead from within. Rooted in tradition, yet open to transformation, it echoes the gold line in broken porcelain: a mark of strength, of beauty made visible through time.

A scent that doesn’t decorate you. It affirms you.
