Where it differs: Scored nine out of ten for likeness, but as a budget oil the fig nectar and mandarin top fades quickly, leaving mostly the creamy sandalwood and musk close to skin.
Smells like Van Cleef & Arpels Santal Blanc.

The 3 worth trying, ranked
Similarity is the owners' vote plus the note overlap. Price is a typical US bottle price when the house publishes one. Bars are each match's own accords.
Where it differs: Marketed as inspired by the white sandalwood original but without a published pyramid, so expect the creamy sandalwood core with less of the violet and benzoin nuance.
Where it differs: Owners note a similar creamy-cold fig and wood feel, but it leans more amber and fruit than sandalwood, losing the violet-powder softness of the original.
