About PolySantol
Polysantol is a powerful synthetic sandalwood molecule that delivers a creamy, woody, milky scent with exceptional longevity and diffusion. Known for its natural sandalwood-like aroma, Polysantol is richer and smoother than many other sandalwood replacers, offering a warm, velvety base that enhances everything from musky skin scents to oriental woods and floral accords.
