🪵 The Inspiration: The Maharajah's Palace
Imagine the golden hour in Mysore, India. The air is thick with the scent of sacred wood warming in the sun. Imperial Mysore Sandalwood is the crown jewel of the collection. It reimagines the 2019 Sandalo masterpiece by amplifying the creamy, lactonic (milky) qualities of the wood. It is smooth, rich, and incredibly luxurious. It smells like "Liquid Gold."
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Cream and Spice
The fragrance opens with a refined Calabrian Bergamot and Orange, providing a brief flash of Italian sunlight. The heart is where the magic happens: a massive dose of Mysore Sandalwood blended with Cardamom and Lavender. It is buttery and soft. The base is Tonka Bean and Amber, sealing the wood in a warm embrace.
