The Soft Presence
Warm enough to feel right. Easy enough to forget.
Not every choice needs to be a statement. This one just works and keeps working. The best kind of invisible.

Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.
Santal Blanc sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber. That is 63rd percentile for warmth across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Santal Blanc sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 34th percentile for projection across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Santal Blanc is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 31st percentile for risk across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Santal Blanc carries body without weight, present without filling a room. That is 22nd percentile for texture across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Santal Blanc carries sweetness without letting it define the scent. That is 67th percentile for sweetness across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
