Sandalwood Essential Oil
Sandalwood essential oil is steam distilled from the heartwood of sandalwood trees (Santalum album and related species), which are native to India and parts of Southeast Asia and have been prized for more than 4,000 years. Historically, sandalwood was revered in Indian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern cultures for its rich fragrance and was widely used in religious ceremonies, fine carvings, perfumery, and traditional botanical preparations. Today, sandalwood essential oil is used in all-natural soaps, lotions, balms, perfumes, and aromatherapy blends, where it is appreciated for its warm, woody aroma and enduring botanical heritage.
