Discover Armani/Privé's new Les Eaux Haute Couture fragrance, Santal Dān Shā, a warm and sensual sandalwood as an uplifting tribute to the serenity of Chinese imperial palaces and their contemplative gardens.

Known as dān shā, the unique cinnabar-toned shade of Sandalwood echoes imperial palaces’ magnificent façades, lending SANTAL DĀN SHĀ its enchanting name. SANTAL DĀN SHĀ’s woody yet refreshing scent conjures an evocative breeze drifting through the imperial palaces’ gardens. It blends the balmy sensuality of Sandalwood with the sparkling freshness of Bergamot, and the aromatic spices of Cardamom. Fusing these elegant notes, Sandalwood’s captivating, woody fragrance is awakened by the invigorating Bergamot, creating SANTAL DĀN SHĀ’s dreamy, majestic, and soothing effect.

SANTAL DAN SHA is encapsulated in the iconic and distinctive ARMANI/PRIVÉ Les Eaux square bottle, timelessly elegant and topped by a shiny black lacquered cap. Its intense ochre juice, is inspired by the rich red color of sandalwood, and echoing the lacquered, cinnabar-toned wood that characterizes Chinese palaces’ architecture. The fragrance’s name is delicately adorned in black lettering on the flacon’s shiny gold plate.
For clarity and to better reflect their high concentration, our fragrances in 'Les Eaux' range will now be labelled as “Eau de Parfum” instead of “Eau de Toilette”. This change only concerns the name: the concentration, quality, and olfactive experience remain unchanged. Depending on stock availability, your perfume may be delivered under the 'Eau de Toilette' or 'Eau de Parfum' designation. The scent is identical.
Apply on pulse point: wrist, inner elbow and neck.
