Van Cleef & Arpels Santal Blanc EDP

Van Cleef & Arpels Santal Blanc EDP brings a calm, luminous character to everyday fragrance. Part of the Maison’s Collection Extraordinaire, it draws on ideas of purity and balance, with the tranquil beauty of gardens and parks as its inspiration. Rather than making a bold entrance, this unisex Eau de Parfum feels composed and intimate, offering a polished scent for those who prefer understated elegance.

Sandalwood forms the smooth, creamy heart of this woody musk fragrance. Its soft, almost milky texture is complemented by fig nectar, which adds a tender, gently sweet facet, while mandarin orange brings a restrained touch of brightness. Violet, musk, tonka bean and benzoin complete the composition with powdery softness and a comforting warmth. Together, these notes create a distinctive fig and sandalwood perfume with a close, understated trail rather than an overpowering presence.

Perfumer Michel Almairac shaped Santal Blanc around the impression of soft wood and delicate fig milk, balanced by powdery musk. The result is a creamy sandalwood fragrance with a smooth, rounded feel and a quiet contrast between fresh fruit, soft florals and warm notes. It may appeal to anyone looking for a refined unisex woody musk EDP, especially those who enjoy fragrances that sit close to the skin and feel considered without being showy. Its versatile character suits both women and men.

• Creamy sandalwood gives the fragrance its smooth, comforting centre.
• Fig nectar and mandarin orange bring a gentle fruity lift.
• Violet, musk, tonka bean and benzoin add powdery softness and warmth.
• A versatile unisex scent for daytime, relaxed evenings or a thoughtful fragrance gift.

Wear Santal Blanc on its own for a clean, subtle impression at work or during leisure time, or make it a familiar choice when you want soft woods rather than a pronounced, attention-seeking scent. The available 1 ml, 2 ml, 3 ml, 5 ml and 10 ml sample options make it easy to explore the composition in a size that suits you. Choose the Santal Blanc EDP option that feels right and enjoy a gentle, creamy expression of woody elegance.
