Santal Blush from Tom Ford, released in 2011 and composed by Yann Vasnier, is a spicy, creamy sandalwood floral. People describe it as spicy, woody and floral in equal measure, with a minority also noting musk and resin.

The opening is warm and unusual: fenugreek gives a maple-like, slightly savoury sweetness, carrot seed an earthy, rooty tone, and caraway, cinnamon and other spices a warm, glowing heat. The heart softens into flowers, as rose, ylang-ylang and jasmine bring a creamy, sensual floral richness. The base is where the sandalwood shines, creamy and smooth, joined by benzoin for a balsamic sweetness, Virginia cedar for dryness, agarwood for a hint of dark wood and musk for a skin-like finish.

People report long-lasting to moderate wear and a moderate trail. Votes favour autumn and winter and split almost evenly between day and night, so it suits cosy days, dinners and evenings for someone who likes spiced, creamy woods.
