High concentration, roughly 20 to 30 percent aromatic oils. Wears long and close to skin, less projection but more intense one-on-one. Meant to be worn sparingly and dabbed rather than sprayed.

Yes, if you love pure sandalwood and want a straightforward scent.
Pure Oil of Sandalwood by Carolina Herrera is generally appreciated for its strong, authentic sandalwood scent. Many users describe it as warm, creamy, and slightly sweet, making it a comforting fragrance. However, some find it too simplistic, as it lacks complexity with no heart or base notes. It is often recommended for cooler weather and can be worn casually or in more intimate settings.
