Constituents

Heaven-scented Sandalwood essence is ethically harvested and steam distilled from the heartwood of the aromatic tree. The Sandalwood tree grows for 30 years before it begins producing oil, so each bottle of luxurious Sandalwood Essential Oil is at least three decades in the making.

Sandalwood is one of the most important ingredients in ancient perfumes and soothes sensitive and dry skin.
It suffuses with magnificent moisture and historically has been used to cool and satiate hot and dehydrated skin. Scientific studies reveal that monoterpenes in Sandalwood Essential Oil are beneficial for toning the skin and especially the stratum corneum, which explains why Sandalwood has been a staple of natural hair and skin care since antiquity.
Soothing Sandalwood, sacred for thousands of years, hastens the appearance of skin restoration, fades melasma, and reduces the appearance of scars.

This ancient, amorous aromatic also contains a botanical pheromone similar to androsterone, the underarm pheromone secretion that acts as a sexual signal. This makes it a dashing deodorant that is super effective by simply applying a drop to charm each armpit. Our Sandalwood Essential Oil calms as it revitalizes, energies as it balances, and creates an overall feeling of celebrating delectable beauty.
