Original Santal opens with a vibrant and invigorating burst of Jamaican ginger and royal Indian sandalwood, combined with cinnamon and coriander for a spicy introduction. The middle note of the scent unfolds a delicate and alluring combination of orange tree absolute, rosemary, juniper berries, and lavender, which sweetly represents the warm, earthy base. When the scent settles down, the base comes out with the most incredible mixture of vanilla and tonka bean that is additionally manifested by the warmth of ambergris and musk, making it a long-lasting, and a whole thick, covering fragrance, that embraces all the senses.

Disappointed
A playful cologne by Creed
When I wear Original Santal I like to spray around 7 times as it doesn't project huge and it is a more intimate scent. I prefer to wear this scent on a night out with the fiancée at a steakhouse but it could be a scent you could wear anytime and anywhere. Very playful and sweet scent that draws attention to those that are close to you. This one I rank right up there with Aventus, GIT, and EROLFA, very intimate and classy sweet scent!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Disappointed
After owning several fragrances from House Creed, I decided to try this one based on its great reviews, and, in my opinion, it's too generic to charge what they do for it. It's not a bad scent, just very overpriced.

No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Classy quality.
Bought this for my wife as I smelled it in the boutique and was hooked. Legitimate quality here and paid the best possible price. Creed is a top notch house of quality fragrances. Original Santal does not disappoint. Some say it smells like Joop and I have to disagree. I know very well what Joop smells like and I when I do smell joop that synthetic vibe always tells me there is joop in the air but when someone is wearing this no one will say you are wearing joop. It is only after someone tells you or you read comments about it being like joop is when you smell OS and see the cinnamon note and think of Joop but OS is more complex then Joop and with base of $$$ ambergris you can find in the cheap department store stuff.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

One of the best
The perfect fragrance. The sandalwood is powerful and this scent will draw compliments over and over again. Chic magnet. I love Creed scents. This would be a virtual tie w/ Creed Aventus and just under Green Irish Tweed. Creed colognes are the best out there. Original Santal is one of the all time greats
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Creed always delivers
I ordered this never having smelled it because I don't think I have ever had a Creed Fragrance that I didn't like. I took a chance on an expensive cologne and I was very happy with the result. It's a somewhat strong fragrance and I use it for special occasions when I want to make a statement. The wife loves it and that's all that matters.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Very Complamentive
I was recommended to this website from a friend. [...] I got a great deal even beat that little old lady at the mall. I can't get this product where I live except there. I usually use silver mountain mist but I wanted to give this on a try. I love it but will probably go back to silver when this one is gone. I am still trying to find out how to wear this one its not as strong as i'm used to and I don't want to overpower.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Better than Joop!
Original Santal is a great fragrance. It is similiar to Joop but much more complex and long lasting. I purchased a sample before investing in this fragrance to ensure it wasn't just an overpriced Joop. Joop is very effervescent and overpowering (I don't own it). O.Santal lasts all day and my wife loves it. It cools w/in a few hours and the sandalwood takes over. The fragrance is concentrated so you only need a few well placed spritzes in a fragrance free carrier lotion to ensure all day coverage . I expect this bottle will last for at least 1yr or more.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
