About this product
Chandana, the Sanskrit word for sandalwood, means scented wood; newer translations add shining and glowing, a cousin of Chandra, the moon. This bottle holds that glow, already softened for easy blending.
This is our Santalum album, the species known as Indian or Old Mountain Sandalwood, diluted to 10% in fractionated coconut oil. In southern India, its native home, wild trees have become vulnerable through unsustainable harvesting and are strictly regulated; ours is steam distilled from the heartwood of sustainably and ethically farmed plantation trees in Australia. It is high in santalol, about 90%. The aroma is sweet, fresh heartwood, smooth and soft, comforting and grounding, and in perfumery it makes a fine unisex cologne base.
