Santal 33
Santal 33 sits in the base from the first minute — creamy Mysore sandalwood, almost edible and pencil shavings and dry timber, and little else in the way. It registers unisex, sophisticated rather than sporty, and sensual rather than clean.
A reference profile, not a product. Rayhan Scents is an independent house, is not affiliated with or endorsed by Le Labo, and does not sell decants.

Base — what lingers
- SandalwoodCreamy Mysore, almost edible.
- Cedar WoodPencil shavings and dry timber.
- Smoky / IncenseBakhoor smoke curling in a majlis.
- VetiverCut roots, smoke and shadow.
Weighted almost entirely at the base, this is the kind of profile that outlasts the day — poured as a high-concentration oil it holds at the pulse points for twelve hours and is still legible on a scarf the next morning.
Sultan Oud
Oud · Vetiver · Pepper
Sultan Oud is built on the same cedar and vetiver, and its base — Oud, Cedarwood, Ambroxan, Vetiver — carries the profile at the same weight Santal 33 does on skin.
