I was attracted by the lovely bottle. Lucky me, I got the creamy drydown!!! I guess that makes up for all the other scents other people adore that I can't wear, (Pink Sugar, Obsession, almost every...

What an amazing scent! Finally got a chance to try this - what a beautiful sandalwood scent - very true. Like 10 CC, I want to bathe myself in this. I find that it becomes a skin scent on me -...

I love this scent...but not on my skin. Perhaps on a man, and most definitely in a candle. However, my personal preferences aside, this is a fantastic sandalwood. Rich yet light and not...

This will always be on my perfume tray. A staple that is always comforting and appropriate when everything else seems to jar the senses. It does not change much after the initial dry down on me...

All I can say is AMAZING. So soft, sensual and so sexy. I have over 56 fragrances and this one beats them all. I feel so good when I am wearing it. If they ever discontinue this I will just die.

i love the smoky, woodsy smell this has on me... it reminds me of the enormous 'treasure chest' that my mother has and how, during my childhood in hot and humid shanghai summers, the whole house...

Over the span of a year I've experienced a 360 degree in my opinion of this scent; at first I thought it was a nice, but not great or truly authentic sandalwood...very similar to, but sort of a...

The Tam Dao blend of rosewood, cypress, and sandalwood sounded fantastic. In fact, it IS fantastic on my mother. Unusual, peaceful, and wonderful. However, Tam Dao does something funny with my...

I really like this scent but personally prefer it on my husband. It's lovely but a touch masculine, IMO. It's a soft sandalwood scent, not overpowering at all. I'm buying it for my hubby very...

Tam Dao is a dry and yet warm sandalwood experience. Similar to 10 Corso Como (but drier) and lovely when layered with Passage D'Enfer. However, this Diptyque offering can stand on it's own with...

very watery, too light and shy for sandalwood, poor lasting power too. overall not that bad but Diptyque is better with candles than fragrances IMO

Very dry metallic sandalwood. Compared to Serge Lutens 's Santal de Mysore (the sandalwood scent ultimate reference), it lacks substance, creamyness and exoticism.

I got no creamy sandalwood from this. First it was rough, splintery wood, then it turned into butterscotch! I enjoyed the creamy, pudding-like note, but it wasn't what I was after. And it was gone...

I find this is a very sensual woodsy (I smell cedar and sandalwood) fragrance. It stays close to the skin in a very warm and comforting way, and has good lasting power. It´s also great layered with...

Sadly this is not "creamy" or "dreamy" on me. Smells like jugs of motor oil being kept in a cedar chest.

I adore sandalwood so I was excited to try this. I have to admit it is very nice, with a dominant cedar note. It is very unisex smelling. I don't think I will buy it again simply because I am a...

Oh man, this is such a strange find for me. I can tell you that sandalwood is not my thing. This scent though is seriously sexy on dry down as it melds so well with the skin and I know will be...
