Collection: Tamboti Wood Fragrances

The perfume note of tamboti wood offers the rich, smooth aroma of one of southern Africa's most prized hardwoods. Sometimes likened to sandalwood for its sweet, creamy depth, tamboti opens with a warm, balsamic woodiness laced with subtle spice, then deepens into dry, slightly smoky and resinous facets that linger for hours. There is a quiet density to it — polished rather than rugged — with a faintly leathery, earthy undertone that evokes carved wood and sun-baked savanna.

Tamboti pairs naturally with sandalwood, cedar, vetiver, amber and soft spices, anchoring oriental and woody compositions with exotic gravity. The mood it sets is meditative and grounded, like the hush inside a workshop of fine timber.
