## About
Sandalwood has been considered a sacred oil for millennia, a scent to light the way into stillness. A drop in a meditation blend, a slow breath, and the room seems to quiet around you.This extract is Santalum spicatum, CO2 extracted from a harvest of ethically cultivated trees in Western Australia. To our nose it is aromatically far superior to distilled WA sandalwood. The CO2 Select process also draws resinoids from the wood, which gives the extract its color. The Australian aromatherapist Mark Webb calls it complex and deeply spiritual, its chemistry far more complex than that of its northern relatives.It makes a fine skin care oil for the men in your life, and a lovely addition to liquid castile soap. It is offered pure and undiluted here, and as a 10% dilution in fractionated coconut oil.DetailsBotanical name: Santalum spicatumOrigin: Western Australia, ethically cultivatedMethod: CO2 Select extractionShelf life: about 5 to 8 years after openingHow to useAdd a few drops to a meditation blend, diluted in a carrier oil before it touches skin, or stir it into unscented liquid castile soap.
