My skin but better
First of all, I have to say that I don't really like woody scents that much about myself. Sensuous is an exception. However, it would also be a cheek to simply call it a woody scent, because there is so much more!
The fragrance is quite linear. There is sandalwood from the beginning to the end and not too little of it. To the very creamy sandalwood mixes a delicate sweetness, which possibly comes from the honey, whereby I cannot smell this concretely, and the light spice of the pepper. This combination works surprisingly well because the sweet notes and pepper are so restrained that the dominant sandalwood tolerates them next to it. This results in a very harmonious composition of woody, creamy, sweet and spicy.
The flowery notes, which are supposed to be in there, remain completely hidden from me - but it doesn't matter, it works well without them. In the drydown I perceive it as a bit soapy.
Sensuous is a warm, cozy, timeless and elegant fragrance that suits every weather and occasion, but without being trivial. It reminds me of sun-warmed skin after spending the whole day outside.
The durability is quite good at me, I can perceive it good 8 hours. The Sillage is rather body-hugging, which in my opinion also fits the concept of the fragrance. And on some days I really don't want to be "raked" at a long distance.
If you are interested in Tom Ford's Santal Blush, you can smell Sensuous before and save a few Euros. There are definitely no identical fragrances, but there is already an unmistakable similarity.
By the way, I feel that the fragrance is absolutely unisex.
