Escentia Sandalwood (WI) Pure Essential Oil may create a sense of calmness and greater mental clarity. It is commonly known for its woody, sweet smell. It is frequently used as a base for products such as incense, perfumes, cosmetics, aftershave, soaps and liquids. Traditionally, sandalwood oil is a part of religious traditions in India and other Eastern countries – both the wood and oil have been highly valued for centuries. The sandalwood tree itself is considered holy. The tree is used for various religious ceremonies including weddings and births. Sandalwood is very beneficial to the skin; it can help reduce the appearance of skin imperfections and it promotes a healthy, smooth complexion.
Sandalwood West Indian comes from a small tree, which is evergreen with compound leaves and lovely white flowers. The bark emits a valuable resinous fluid. The oil is a viscous liquid with a pale yellow, or brownish-yellow colour. The scent can be described as being a faintly woody, slightly oily-sweet, balsamic note. Over time, it rapidly loses the rich, complex odour, fading to a weak, woody-balsamic note. It is a base note oil and is said to be calming and sedative.
