Best Neverending by The House of Oud Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

Santal takes its inspiration from a Sandalwood fragrance originally created in the 1800s which has then been given a distinctive contemporary edge.

A fresh herbaceous blend with a sunny grapefruit at the center of the composition.

Bon Parfumeur open olfactive dimensions and invite you to add your own story. Try 701 if you like cool spices such as cardamom, sunny citrus nuances and refreshing greenness  of eucalyptus. 

Perfumer: Benoist Lapouza.

This extrait is named for the archipelagic country in the South Pacific Ocean, source of the sandalwood in the base. Vanuatu is a lively, confident blend of spices (black pepper, cardamom, cumin) dappled across characterful woody materials (sandalwood, patchouli, cedar and papyrus). Putting meat on the bones is fig milk, with violet leaves adding sharp sparkle. A fragrance for unexpected adventures.

Kamel was the friend who entrusted Sora Dora founder Antoine with the secrets of the oriental olfactory universe, embodied in this namesake perfume. Built around the clean woodiness of Laotian oud, this extrait contrasts the dirty spice of cumin with sweet raspberry and syrupy rose. Smoky and spicy, Kamel Oud will enhance your next 1001 days and 1001 nights.

Perfumer: Mathieu Nardin

A gourmand perfume with an exotic twist. The core theme is bitter cocoa dusted with pepper. Even though we think of cocoa and chocolate as amlost the same sweet thing, cocoa powder on its own has more of an ambery, bitter woody and deep aroma rather than sweet chocolate vibes.

Perris took cocoa absolute and and styled it the Aztec way - no sugar, just the bitter tonifying glory.

Perfumer: JULIEN RASQUINET

The scent of paper and the smell of words. A tribute to the lights of Paris and its love of books. Dry woods are enlivened by a shimmer of nutmeg and cumin, meeting in a crackling flame of amber and vanilla. Two varieties of cedar are showcased: Atlas with its resinous, leathery character, and Virginia with its dry and spicy “new pencil” notes.

A sheer yet sumptuous sandalwood, Sandalo is frisked up with lime and black pepper, and deepened with cypress and patchouli. This eau de toilette has 90% natural ingredients and is part of the Granado Layering Collection, either to be used alone or combined with other fragrances. Free of dyes and animal ingredients.

The Orange Extraordinaire collection.

An homage to the role of spices in Western perfumery, history and culture. Naturally it’s a majestic aromatic flow of cinnamon and ginger, with numerous sparks of pepper and a rich incense background.

Narcotic tuberose, a favourite of Marie Antoinette, amped to heady heights here by ylang-ylang with added saffron intrigue. This voluptuous floral is bold but not shrill, thanks to the grounding of suede, papyrus, patchouli and cashmere wood.
