You know how just prior you first imagined smelling a smoldering log of cedarwood? Replace that smokey cedarwood log and replace it with sandalwood. Except that log of sandalwood has been sitting out for years. Unlike a fresh piece of sandalwood that can very strong, this old piece of sandalwood has but a whisper of what once was. Can you smell it? It's just barely there. Now take a sip of that ice cold vanilla flavored cream soda. As you breath in the faint scent of sandalwood through your nose, the vanilla cream soda washes down the back of your throat. That is white sand.
