Comment: Santal Sacré is a Luckyscent exclusive
To commemorate its tenth anniversary, Luckyscent launched four exclusive fragrances dedicated to the city of Los Angeles, with each one reflecting a different aspect of that city.
Developed by Jerome Epinette, and based on LA's "contemplative culture of spiritual and physical health" (yes, seriously), Santal Sacré is a musky sandalwood effort, with light touches of ginger and frankincense. It's clean, soft, linear and a little creamy, with the papyrus adding a gentle moist woodiness to the proceedings. However, it hardly produces any sillage and disappears within four hours.
With the sandalwood becoming dryer, during the drydown phase, it's inoffensive but also unsatisfactory to wear. The high price tag doesn't help matters either.
