Eau de Sandalwood
Le Jardin Retrouvé (1977)

Strange to see this house is so under-appreciated. It's been around for awhile, they give samples away (swiftly and for a very low posting fee), apparently they use natural ingredients (if you care about that sort of thing, I don't really) and their prices put their niche counterparts to shame. Ah yes, the scent? Beautiful and breezy take on sandalwood with a light soapy touch. Nostalgic, almost haunting, but without the usual strength issues one associates with something made in 1977 (so don't expect monster sillage.) Perhaps a touch too pretty for me.
