I too would have to say sandalwoood. At first I was not a fan, but

it's grown on me a great deal. I do, however, think it lends itself

to colder scents more suitable to men. For warmer scents maybe

guaiacwood, though I'm not too sure how I feel about the dry out (it

might smell too much like burnt wood at the end).
