Sandalwood Essential Oil

Sandalwood Essential Oil

Sandalwood is a luxurious essential oil with an exquisitely soft, sweet, and woody scent that is characteristic of Oriental perfumes and incense. Sandalwood oil comes from the heartwood of trees in the Santalum genus.

Sandalwood oil is an essential oil obtained from the steam distillation of chips and billets cut from the heartwood of various species of sandalwood trees, mainly Santalum album (Indian sandalwood) and Santalum spicatum (Australian sandalwood).

The color of sandalwood oil ranges from clear, pale yellow to yellow. The calming and soothing scents of this essential oil are floral, warm, woody, herbaceous, and earthy.
