SANDALWOOD ROOT/HEARTWOOD OIL
Sandalwood, derived from the heartwood and root of trees in the Santalum genus, particularly Santalum album and Santalum spicatum, is an aromatic cornerstone with origins in India and other parts of Asia and Australia. For millennia, its deeply fragrant heartwood has held significant religious and spiritual connotations, especially within Hindu, Buddhist, and ancient Egyptian traditions.

With an ability to promote a smoother complexion, reduce signs of aging, and maintain skin elasticity, Sandalwood Root/Heartwood Oil remains a coveted ingredient in various skincare formulations, from serums and creams to luxury perfumes, bridging the gap between ancient rituals and contemporary beauty regimens.
