Coconut’s tropical sweetness conjures up visions of a perfect island paradise whenever it’s added to a fragrance. It works best with deep florals such as gardenia, jasmine, and rose, as well as any other sweet note you like. Coconut also highlights other tropical citrus notes such as pineapple, yuzu, litchee, and peach. If you love exotic AND sweet notes in your fragrances, coconut’s smooth, fresh, sweetness will soon be one of your favorites. Coconut scents are best for summer, and also make a fun alternative to heavier winter fragrances.

A must-have in any perfumer’s arsenal, sandalwood forms the base note of countless fragrance compositions. Its milky, suave facets make for a deliciously blendable fixative that has inspired perfumers for millennia. It’s a woody and ambery note with a pervasive warmth that is both velvety-smooth and decadently creamy. Sandalwood’s mystical scent is found everywhere in perfumery. It’s luxurious, milky, tangy, and caramel-sweet aroma infuses a fragrance with deep, exotic accents. Sandalwood can also appear bright and bone-dry, and display its arid, woody side in a gorgeous and austere perfume. Sandalwood’s depth of tone and smooth, polished texture adds elegance, refinement, and mystery to any perfume - it can mimic vanilla’s deliciously sweet, butter-fat heaviness, or fade into cedar’s sharp and bitter feel. It’s also a fantastic and evocative scent on it’s own as well as in a blended fragrance. Sandalwood’s tastefully exotic lusciousness is wearable year-round by either sex, and you could spend a lifetime sampling all the different ways it can be used in perfumery.
