A warm, grounded skin scent built on Australian sandalwood and frankincense. Subtle clary sage and coriander add depth without competing. Wears close to the body. Clean, calm, and composed.

Smells like warm wood, dry spice, and still air. Grounded. Clean. Unhurried.

Six ingredients, carrier included. Every one named below, with what it brings to the scent.
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Oil
Carries the oils onto skin. No scent of its own.
Carrier · Certified organic
Santalum Album (Sandalwood) Oil
Creamy, soft wood. The weight everything else sits on.
Base note
Amyris Balsamifera Bark Oil
Dry, quiet wood. Holds the base steady for hours.
Base note
Boswellia Carterii (Frankincense) Oil
Cool smoke. Lifts the woods and keeps them from going heavy.
Heart note
Salvia Sclarea (Clary Sage) Oil
Herbal and faintly sweet. Softens the edge between wood and spice.
Heart note
Coriandrum Sativum (Coriander) Seed Oil
Dry pepper, warm spice. The first thing you catch.
Top note
Naturally occurring in these oils: Linalool, d-Limonene, Geraniol, Citral, Farnesol. These are components of the plants themselves, not added ingredients. They are present in almost every fragrance made. You just rarely get told.
That's it. No "parfum". No "fragrance". Nothing hidden.
Take this vial and all four scents in 2 mL together. The Starter Bundle is $19 under buying them apart, with free shipping. Add the Sanctum Starter Bundle

Apply on clean, dry skin to pulse points: wrists, neck, inner elbows, behind the ears. Warm skin helps the scent develop. Let it absorb. Do not rub. Reapply as needed throughout the day.

Store in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat. The amber glass guards against light. Heat is the main thing to manage. A hot car or a sunny windowsill will dull the scent.

Free shipping on orders over $79. Orders under $79 ship for a $9.95 flat rate. Express Post is $14.95 at checkout. Buy three or more full-size scents and save 10% automatically. Posted within 1 to 2 business days from Melbourne, VIC - we currently deliver within Australia only, not internationally.

30-day quality guarantee. If your order arrives damaged, leaks, or is faulty, email info@sylvawell.com with a photo within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you in full.

      Formulated to hold.

      Natural materials vary enormously in how long they hold. Light ones lift away within the hour, heavy ones stay all day, so longevity comes down to how carefully the two are balanced. Finding a combination that holds takes testing and nothing else. These four are what survived more than sixty attempts.

      2-4 hrs
      Noticed at arm's length
      8-12 hrs
      Still there up close

      Everyone's skin is different, so treat these as a guide. This is a scent people notice when they are standing next to you, not from across the room. Topping it up during the day is normal and recommended.

      FAQ

      Each scent page describes the fragrance profile and lists every ingredient. If you're unsure, the Discovery Set ($59) lets you try all four scents before choosing a full-size vial.

      Sanctum wears for 8 to 12 hours, depending on your skin. The first 2 to 4 hours are the most present, then it settles close to the skin for the rest of the day.

      Natural materials vary enormously in how long they hold, so longevity comes down to how the light ones and the heavy ones are balanced. These four came through sixty-plus formulations to get that balance right.

      Sandalwood, amyris and frankincense are slow, heavy materials, which is where Sanctum gets its length. Reapply whenever you want to freshen up.

      A 10 mL vial lasts around 10 to 12 weeks of daily wear. Longer if you alternate between scents or wear it less often.

      All ingredients are natural, but essential oils can cause reactions in some people. Check the ingredient list against any known sensitivities. The Discovery Set is a low-cost way to patch-test before committing.

      Fragrance unfolds in layers as ingredients evaporate at different rates.

      Top note: Coriander Seed. A fresh, slightly spicy opening that fades within the first 15 to 30 minutes.

      Heart notes: Frankincense, Clary Sage. Dry resin and calm, herbal warmth. The contemplative middle of the scent.

      Base notes: Sandalwood, Amyris. Smooth, creamy, long-lasting wood. The foundation that sits close to the skin for hours.

      Yes. Any combination of 3 or more 10 mL vials qualifies for 10% off, regardless of which scents you choose. The discount applies automatically at checkout. No code needed.

      A single 10 mL bought on its own is not covered for scent preference, which is why the Discovery Set exists. Try all four in 2 mL first, or take the Starter Bundle and get the set plus a full size of your choice.

      Both are covered by the 30-day money-back guarantee. Wear all four for two weeks, and if you go back to your old fragrance we refund you. Nothing needs to be sent back.

      Full ingredient lists and sensitive-skin notes are on every product page and unit box. Please patch test before first use.

      I have finally found something that has made me confident that I am doing the right thing for my body. I absolutely love that every ingredient is listed properly. As someone who has become very conscious of all the hidden labels and unnecessary chemicals in many essential oils, I am so happy I can finally rely on Sylvawell to smell good and look good while using it. Alba is the perfect scent for me. It isn't overly pungent and it carries for OVER 12 hours (WOW)!! It evolves overtime into this lovely vanilla and floral scent that is rich and very pleasant on the nose. I also have sensitive skin so this product is honestly so worth it and I'm so happy to find something that agrees with my body. Absolutely getting again!

      I bought the discovery set and they all smell amazing! Sanctum and Alba are my favourite! Big no-brainer for me to switch from my old aftershave that had countless chemicals. Definitely will be buying again.

      Impressed with the smell of Alba. I only put a small amount on and already lasting 4+ hrs. Glad I can wear something every day and know exactly what is in it and is also 100% natural

      Huge convert. Im going from owning 6-7 designer branded colognes that smell great, but as soon as I walk out the door I can barely tell, to a selection of Sylvawell scents. I combined my Alba and Aeris scent, and without a doubt - my go to. The peace of mind knowing its also not harmful is huge. Awesome product

      First time mum, starting my low-tox era. This is the best purchase I’ve made since having my baby! I stopped wearing perfume all together as I knew it was bad for my baby. Soooo glad to have a natural option! I got Alba and it smells sooo nice!!!!!

      This is my absolute favourite scent from the range! It’s sweet, yet not overpowering. I now have a new daily scent that I know is better for my body.

      Wasn't quite sure about the product until it arrived, I put it on a shirt and couldn't believe that a few days later I could still smell it. I was very impressed, smelled amazing and lasted ages.

      I've always wanted to find and wear a natural roll on fragrance and now I have 4! The Discovery Set has been a great introduction to wearing natural fragrances, and despite having sensitive skin I've had NO reaction to any of them. I love that with the Discovery Set I can choose which one I want to wear each day - though Sanctum has become my favourite of the group. I would highly recommend Sylvawell products to anyone!

      I’m so glad I stumbled across Sylvawell! As a chiropractor, I sincerely appreciate natural cosmetics like Sylvawell, as it aligns with the way I aspire to help people.

      I’m also someone who is allergic to a lot of fragrances on the market, so finding a fragrance that is chemical-free and alcohol-free, is a breath of fresh air.

      I highly recommend Sylvawell to anyone looking for a natural & long lasting fragrance. 5 Stars!

      I have finally found a scent that is ME !
      I started with the discovery set and tried all 4 scents , wore them daily for 2 weeks as a trial . AERIS is it - it’s floral , clean scent made of all natural oils is what I have been looking for . I wear it at work and have had many compliments . I have just ordered the 10 ml roll and the $10 credit was a bonus . Thank you Sylvawell ! Q

      Had a amazing experience. Response, packing time and postage was all done within the day i ordered. Ordered both sylva and received alba as a sample both smelt amazing, it is refreshing to find businesses who can supply healthy and beneficial alternatives to your average chemical based fragrances. Highly recommend 11/10 experience

      Beautiful scents, nice knowing we are not putting more chemicals onto our bodies. I purchased Slyva for husband & we received a sample of Sanctum which is now my favourite. Everyone at work is asking what I am wearing. Brilliant product.

      Absolutely love these fragrances. They smell amazing, last well, and don’t have the harsh synthetic smell that many perfumes do. The discovery set is fantastic value and made choosing a favourite really easy. I’ll definitely be buying a full-size bottle.

      Aeris smells beautiful! It’s fresh and clean and easy to wear.
      The delivery was very prompt and packaged nicely. It’s great to know I’m not wearing any nasties on my skin.
      I’ve also tried Alba, which I love too!
