Orris & Sandalwood Limited Edition

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Jo Malone Orris & Sandalwood

Orris & Sandalwood is a soft powdery iris and woods scent, and our version keeps that feel: a soft violet opening, a powdery orris heart, and a creamy sandalwood base.

The Story Behind the Scent

Jo Malone built Orris & Sandalwood around the pairing of powdery orris root and creamy sandalwood, refined and elegant in the brand’s clean style.

Our interpretation follows that idea. We keep a soft violet up top, let orris root carry a powdery middle, and finish on a creamy sandalwood and amber base.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original is a boutique limited edition sold at premium pricing. We build ours at a high perfume oil concentration and sell direct, so you get the same character for a fraction of the price.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a soft, powdery, elegant woody scent and wants a boutique style fragrance without the boutique price.

How it Smells

Common Questions

How close is it to Jo Malone Orris & Sandalwood?

It stays close to the powdery iris and sandalwood character of the original. It is our own interpretation rather than a copy, but the impression is very familiar.

How can it cost so much less than Jo Malone Orris & Sandalwood?

Most of the price of a boutique fragrance goes to the brand name, packaging and retail markup rather than the liquid itself. We put our budget into the scent and sell direct, so you get a comparable experience for a fraction of the price.

Is this the same perfume as Jo Malone Orris & Sandalwood?

No. We do not use the same formula or ingredients. It is an independent interpretation made to evoke the same style at a much lower price.

How long does it last?

You can expect several hours on skin. Spraying onto clothing as well as skin helps it last even longer.

Who is it best for?

It is unisex and works day or night across most seasons.

How should I apply it?

Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and inner elbows. A light spritz on clothing makes it last through the day.
