Maison Crivelli launched Santal Volcanique in 2018, an Eau de Parfum made with perfumer Richard Ibanez. At Harrods it is £190 for 100ml. Santal Crater is Aromara's take on it, and it is in stock now. A full 50ml, 35% Extrait, £40.

Maison Crivelli tell it as sandalwood scorched on the slopes of an erupting volcano. Fresh spice opens it: ginger, cardamom and a bright twist of lime. Then dry sandalwood and cedar, with ylang-ylang and a dark seam of coffee, settling on soft musks.

Love the ginger and cardamom? Try Damask Musk too, our take on Maison Crivelli Musc Nurāsana. Same house and the same spicy opening, then it goes rose, frankincense and musk where Santal Crater goes sandalwood, cedar and coffee. We make both.

35% Extrait. 7+ hours, guaranteed. 60 days to decide.

The notes
  • Key materials: Ginger, Cardamom, Lime, Sandalwood, Cedar, Ylang-Ylang, Coffee, Musk

Maison Crivelli list the key materials (ginger, cardamom, lime, sandalwood, cedar, ylang-ylang, coffee absolute and musks) but not a top, heart and base, and Fragrantica shows the same flat list. So we show one list rather than invent a pyramid.

FAQ

Why is it called Santal Crater?

Santal is French for sandalwood, and Volcanique means volcanic. Maison Crivelli built this one around sandalwood scorched on the slopes of an erupting volcano, and the crater is where the fire comes out. So: Santal Crater.

How much is Santal Volcanique in the UK?

£190 for 100ml at Harrods (checked October 2026). There is no 50ml in the UK. Santal Crater is £40 for 50ml, or any three 50ml bottles for £80.

What concentration is it?

Maison Crivelli make Santal Volcanique as an Eau de Parfum and publish its concentration: 14%. Santal Crater is 35% Extrait, the same as every scent we make.

Is it the same as Damask Musk?

No. Damask Musk, our take on Musc Nurāsana, shares the ginger and cardamom opening, then turns to Damask rose, frankincense and clean musk. Santal Crater turns to sandalwood, cedar and coffee. Same house, different mood.

Is it unisex?

Yes. Fragrantica and UK stockists list it for women and men.

How long does Santal Crater last?

Lasts 7+ hours, guaranteed. Doesn't last 7+ hours on you? Get your money back within 60 days. For the best wear, spray onto moisturised skin at your pulse points and let it dry without rubbing.

What if I do not like it?

You have 60 days from delivery to decide. Email sales@aromara.co.uk, send the bottle back lightly tested with at least 90% left, and we refund the product price. You pay the return postage. Full terms are in our refund policy.
