Well, it's not exactly as I recall Santal Blush to be, but the similarities are most certainly there. And it's actually a very lovely fragrance! The sandalwood is the most potent in the drydown and the sillage was good on me. The second time I wore it I blended it with L'Occitane's 4 Reines and that combo was astonishing. I think I'll continue to blend it with florals now and then.
