Santal Gray
Santal Gray by Lake & Skye is an unisex eau de parfum in the premium price tier. It opens with bergamot, cardamom and carrot seed, moves into watery notes, jasmine and violet leaf and dries down to sandalwood, amber and musk. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Carrot Seed Earthy, rooty and oddly powdery. Often used to echo iris.
Heart
- Watery Notes A clear, wet freshness. Less salty than a sea note.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
