Santal Signature 2020
NEW BATCH: Please note that I’ve renamed this Mysore sandalwood series to Santal Signature – India. The reason is that many Mysore oils today are likely distilled using at least some sandalwood from other regions of India or further afield, due to high demand and scarcity of supply of course. Therefore, I’m simply erring on the side of caution and will only use the Mysore label in future when I can personally oversee the provenance of the wood, selection, grinding and distillation etc.
Aromatically speaking, however, this oil is nothing short of gorgeous. Bearing the hallmarks of India’s exquisite santals, it opens on the skin with a deeply sweet and smooth buttery goodness that’s simply hard to beat. The sweetness here is especially beautiful, and the woody facets are smooth, rounded, and devoid of any sharp notes, almost as if caressed by the rich buttery nuances flowing around them.
Overall, the profile is deeper, woodier and richer than most, trading the light citrusy nuances for a deeper, almost musky, rich woodiness. Exquisite, whether worn on its own or in blends and macerations, this is Santal Signature 2020. An oil that reminds you why the finest Santalum Albums of al-Hind are the true crème de la crème of santals.

Very beautiful sandalwood oil. I have a few pieces of Mysore sandalwood. The read meat. And I compared the scent profile of this oil to the wood and it’s very similar. I will be buying some more oil soon.

This is a 2020 distillation and as such you will first smell a bit of rawness and sharp edges. However, beyond that you will discover layer after layer of smoothness and a very delicate scent. It is like having a gentle soft spoken person in a conversation. It doesn’t seek attention, it doesn’t impose its perspective upon you. It is a good listener. At times you don’t even need to speak. It understands. Very calming indeed. It came in a very simple package. Neat and nice, exactly the way I like it.

I have different mysore sandalwood, but this tops the bill. Im not saying that my others are in anyway bad because there not. This is rich and buttery and lasts on the skin a long time, if your a sandalwood lover as I am you need to have this in your collection.

It is a lovely smell. Great product, fast shipping. Thank you

A really lovely Mysore Sandalwood oil. I bought a half Tola…mainly because the Kupang sandalwood was so aromatic, which I had bought earlier. This is top quality oil and Muhammad dispatched orders very promptly and very securely. This is yet another wonderful oil for macerations or applied alone. Creamy, vanilla notes with a typical buttery Mysore top note. Shall age well too. Highly recommended is this oil from dear brother Muhammad..Jazaka Allahu khayran ya akhi…

This is the darkest Mysore sandalwood oil I have ever experienced. It has more intense and sweet/buttery scent compare to the previous batch from this store. Even though my original purpose was to buy a lighter version such as the 2020 batch for macerating, but somehow I get this one. A big surprise and unexpected treasure.

To my nose, this sandal is on the dry side, with a ‘hard’ smell like the wood itself as opposed to the softer, plusher side of sandal (present in Ashworth’s Kupang sandal, for example, which I love). Though not my favorite style of oil, this Mysore is quite strong and clearly high quality, with much more character than many of the watery sandal oils currently on the market.
Delcan –
This is a beautiful creamy, buttery Mysore sandalwood. It is fragrantly woody and such a lovely oil. So pleased, I had to order another Tola of it. Thank you Muhammad for all your assistance and for the sample oils you sent.
Highly recommended Etsy shop is Ashworth. Packaged very securely and dispatched on time.
Shop with confidence here.

Rather than the yellow & green citrus opening you often experience in other Sandalwood distillations, this Mysore skips that brightness & goes directly into a brown & red spiciness. An dusky effect, recalling the Australian bushland in summer as the sun is going down. Soon enough, the buttery Santal base begins to reveal itself alongside a dry woody incense like air.
Muhammad is an excellent seller. He dispatches orders quickly, is generous & has some of the best packaging in the game. He is easy to communicate with & provides excellent quality for a good price.
Delcan –
This is the second 11 grm bottle I have bought from this shop. Wonderful oil. Dispatched and arrived quickly and very securely packaged. Exactly as advertised. Muhammad is excellent person to do business with and you can shop with confidence here. I shall be back again. Thanks again Muhammad

What a fragrance, I have a collection of sandalwood attars and this has become my favourite immediately. Its rich and buttery and has a very deep intense aroma, I certainly wouldn’t mix it as its a perfume oil in its own right. Thank you for this beautiful oil.
kind regards Paul
