SANDALWOOD
Sandalwood oil has a lovely complex scent with creamy, sweet floral notes. It is unique amongst woody raw materials because its lacks any sharpness, moss-like, or smoky facet. Sandalwood makes a wonderful, versatile base, with sweetness that can be emphasized or simply left to soften the edges.
Indian Mysore sandalwood, the sandalwood used in early perfumery, is a threatened species today thus perfumers have been challenged with finding ethically harvested and synthetic alternatives.
Sandalwood gives to the perfume sweet, woody, smooth, warm and creamy nuances.
