Sandalwood

True sandalwood oil comes from the heartwood of slow-growing Santalum trees, and it smells soft and creamy, with a milky warmth.

Everyday reference
It is the smell of a bar of sandalwood soap.
Versus Cedar
Next to the dry, raw-plank smell of cedar, sandalwood feels smooth and round, almost like cream.
What to smell for
Notice a smooth, creamy wood that lasts for hours in the base.
