About this product
Picture the smoke of old incense drifting through a quiet room, then thinning to something light and sweet. Buddha Wood, also called False Sandalwood or Desert Rosewood, is a golden brown extract, quite woody, lightly sweet and faintly smoky. It opens deep, then dries down surprisingly light, though perfumers often list it as a middle or even a base note.
The plant is an evergreen that grows as a flowering bush or small tree with pale bark, found mainly in New South Wales and Queensland. Its wood is known for its fragrance when burned and has scented incense for centuries. Some compare the oil to Rosewood, though Rosewood sits deeper. We find it reassuring, like an old friend, and it brings a lightness to woodsy blends that most wood oils lack. Some blenders also value it as a fixative.
Details
- Botanical name: Eremophila mitchellii
- Origin: Australia
- Method: supercritical CO2 extraction of heartwood and bark
- Aroma: woody, lightly sweet, faintly smoky
How to use
It is at its best in a diffuser or a blend, to clear a room before meditation or a quiet hour of rest. Its ketone content is very high, so handle it with respect: do not use it every day, and never take it internally.
A soft, smoky wood for the slow end of the day.
