About this material

Australian Sandalwood Oil opens with a creamy, soft woodiness that has a warm, almost milky quality. As it develops, the scent deepens into a rich, smooth, and slightly sweet profile, with a subtle earthiness that adds complexity. This oil is a versatile base note that provides depth and longevity to a wide range of compositions, enhancing both floral and oriental accords. It pairs well with spices, florals, and other woods, creating a harmonious blend that feels grounded yet luxurious. The typical usage in formulas ranges from 0.180% to 1.90%, with an average around 0.470%.
