Pickle-y sandalwood that became a city uniform. Love it or leave the coffee shop: papyrus, leather, and that unmistakable cool-wood dry-down.

What it inspired

20 inspired-by alternatives

Independent fragrances made to evoke Santal 33 — not the original, and not made by Le Labo. Match percentages are desk estimates.

Highest desk score first; where scores tie, houses we work with come first, then the desk's match estimate (best value: match and per-ml saving). Desk scores and match bands are this desk's own estimates — not customer reviews, not lab tests. Sold-out bottles sit last. How we rank

Some shop links are commission links: The D.I. may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. Inspirations are listed top-rated first (the house's own customer reviews, otherwise our desk score); where ratings tie, houses we work with come first.
