This one is for the offbeat brides who love to break the mold. Smokey, musky, and leathery, this perfume is far from the typical scents you’d find, which makes it perfect for those who aren’t a fan of fruity and floral. Leaning towards the masculine side, a few spritzes of Santal 33 will no doubt have your groom drawn to its familiar notes. So expect a nuzzled neck through the day.
