properties.
Suggested
Use
Add a few drops to a diffuser for a relaxing, "grounding"
aroma climate. Add 5 drops to a hot bath for a blissful retreat, mixing
the oils with Aromaland's Coconut Emulsifier or some Half & Half
prior to blending it with the water (in order to prevent the oils from
floating on the surface).
Add up to 5 drops to 1oz. of unscented body care product. Alternatively,
add up to 10 drops of Aromaland's Tansu Wood, Meditation, Passion, Sacred,
Feminine Balance, Dry Skin or Mature Skin Blends (which contain Sandalwood)
to 1oz. of unscented body care product.
If you are purchasing
this Essential Oil blended with Jojoba, increase the number of drops
you add to your body care or bath according to your liking. You can
use oils blended with Jojoba in a diffuser, but it is not recommended
in diffusers that work with cotton pads - Car Diffuser, Scent Ball,
Spa Scenter - or nebulizers. If using an aromalamp or Aromaland's Aromashell
it will leave an oily residue that can be washed away; but do not overheat
the lamp dish!

Sandalwood is one of the oldest known perfume materials. In the East
it's used as incense, for erecting temples and as part of the cremation
ceremony. It is also forming the famous Aytar perfume in combination
with Rose.

Description
Dry-woody and warm. Oriental, luxurious and balsamic, deep & soft
aroma. The Indian Sandalwood population has been nearly exhausted due
to over-harvesting, and prices have been continuously increasing. Aromaland
offers an Australian Sandalwood as well, with a more smoky note, and
comes at a much lower price.
The potency and incredible fragrancing power of Sandalwood Essential
Oil make it a great investment, even though it is one of the pricier
oils. If you find it hard to dose the pure oil correctly (it is incredibly
strong and intense!), or shy away from the cost, start with Essential
Oils blended with Jojoba Oil, classified as"i/J"("in
Jojoba").
