Sandalwood

Also known as: white sandalwood

Are you looking for a scent that will calm you, restore your balance and add depth to every ritual? Try sandalwood, an essential oil that is one of the most precious treasures of aromatherapy, perfumery and spiritual practice. It will enchant you with its woody scent, which is soft, warm and noble.

Sandalwood has been revered for centuries as one of the sacred trees. The older the tree, the deeper, fuller and more aromatic the oil it offers. Its wood has traditionally been used in Ayurveda, traditional Chinese medicine, meditation rituals, body and skin care and to evoke intimacy and sensual desire.

Pit will bring you a feeling of safety, relaxation and physical comfort. In traditional care, it is associated with restoring the body's harmony, comfortable breathing and calming down after a demanding day. It will complement a relaxing bath or, after dilution in, for example, Almond Oil, a relaxing massage of the neck, chest, feet or heart area.

You can also pamper your face and skin with it. Sandalwood is often an ingredient in luxury cosmetics for dry, mature, sensitive and stressed skin. It will give it a well-groomed appearance, softness, suppleness and balance. Add a few drops of oil to Shea Body Butter Pure BIO and gently rub onto damp skin after bathing.

It is also excellent for natural perfumes, where it creates an elegant base and adds depth, longevity and sensuality to the composition. However, you can also dilute it on its own with, for example, Jojoba Oil or Fractionated Coconut Oil / MCT, pour it into a Roll-on bottle and apply to pulse points. This way you can wear this grounding scent all day long.

On a psychological level, sandalwood cleanses and calms the mind. It will help you slow down your inner pace, dispel distraction and induce a sense of quiet security. It will be ideal for moments when you need to escape external pressure, return to yourself and finally let your thoughts settle.

It is associated with meditation, prayer and spiritual practice. According to Buddhists, its scent helps maintain alertness and inner concentration. Drop it into, for example, the Carafe 150 Aroma Diffuser, light wood and support your rituals, breathwork and moments when you want to ground yourself, centre yourself and protect your inner space.

It stands out well in combination with other essential oils. It blends well with Lavender, Geranium, Bergamot, Frankincense, Himalayan Cedarwood or Cinnamon. For more sensual compositions, you can also combine it with Damask Rose, Ylang-ylang, Patchouli, Vetiver or Orange.

Sacred scent of calm, sensuality and connection to your inner self.
