THE RUSH:
Santal Austral Extrait – Spicy Woody Sandalwood
Santal Austral Extrait by Matière Première is the bold, intensified evolution of the beloved Santal Austral — a spicy woody sandalwood extrait that takes the original’s creamy warmth and pushes it into more vibrant, electrifying territory. Founder and perfumer Aurélien Guichard has introduced an exclusive guest ingredient — Black Cardamom Absolute from Nepal — developed specifically for Matière Première, alongside a higher perfume concentration and an even greater dosage of the star material: Organic Sandalwood Oil from Australia. The result is Santal Austral at its most powerful, most addictive, and most unforgettable.
The opening is immediately commanding with the rich, milky warmth of Organic Australian Sandalwood — creamy, smooth, and deeply enveloping — now amplified to extraordinary intensity. Black Cardamom Absolute from Nepal enters as the transformative guest ingredient, adding a smoky, spiced vibrancy that lifts the sandalwood into bold new territory — sharp, aromatic, and utterly distinctive. The heart deepens with the almond-milk elegance of Iris Absolute from Tuscany , while Benzoin Absolute from Laos and Tonka Bean Absolute from Venezuela anchor the base in warm, honeyed, long-lasting comfort. More powerful, more spicy, more addictive — this is the extrait that demands to be noticed.
