Alcohol, water and extracts from patchouli and sandalwood come together to form Santa Fe Cologne. The scent is oriental and woody, extremely refreshing for those who choose to use it. The blend is a refreshing change from the 'synthetic' varieties that flood the shelves of stores and malls.

That is where we step in - as a breath of fresh air, in an effort to bring you the finest and the best colognes at the most reasonable rates, without the intervention of middle men and hawkers. Our Santa Fe cologne is recommended for daytime use.
A little bit about the ingredients that go on to make Santa Fe Cologne - one of the key ingredients is patchouli - the essential oil made from the patchouli plant has a pungent, powerful, mossy, musty fragrance. The gummy, amber oil is extracted from the leaves of a two to three foot evergreen bush with purple-ringed white flowers, native to southern Asia. Sandalwood originated in India, an evergreen parasitic tree that burrows its roots into other trees. A native of Mysore in south India, sandalwood tree is allowed to mature to fifty to sixty years, and then is cut and distilled. The precious wood is then used for a variety of purposes.
Fragrance has a rich history that goes back to the beginning of civilizations. The sensual oils and extracts were distilled and blended to perfection in the laboratories of all ancient civilizations - from the banks of the river Tigris and Indus in the East, to the verdant Po in the West to the fertile Nile deltas of the South. What would be interesting to note is that use of fragrances were not confined to those enjoying high status in society. Napoleon is said to have been a prolific user of cologne each month. His favorite cologne was made from patchouli & sandalwood, no doubt a precursor to our own Santa Fe. Legend has it, that he wanted to charm his adversaries into surrender.
In the beginning of the 20th century, the only fragrant lotions used by men were Witch Hazel and Bay Rum. Post first World War, those men who wanted to smell well, applied a dose of ladies perfume under their clothing. Fortunately, you do not have to resort to such measures.
