The earliest records of sandalwood in Ayurvedic texts are estimated to date back as far as 500 BCE, making sandalwood oil one of the most ancient fragrance ingredients still used today. Complex and sophisticated, our Sandalwood fragrance oil has an earthy coriander top note that folds into a heart of amyris before blending with a base of dark musk, amber, and woody undertones. This warm, smooth scent perfectly balances blends with floral fragrances but also stands out on its own in traditional or nature-inspired collections.

Note: This product is available in a non-standard 15 oz size due to a higher concentration of natural oils that make it less dense. This size is equivalent to the standard 16oz bottles available for most of our other fragrance oils.

Blends well with: Saffron Cedarwood, Black Coral and Moss, Santal and Coconut, Black Violet and Saffron, Paloma, Bohemian Rose

Alternative branding ideas: Clarity, Strength

Suggested Colors: Brown, Ivory, Blue

We did not experience acceleration or separation. The soap had a very light yellow discoloration and the scent was mild. We did observe a partial gel with minimal insulation. Overall the batter was easy to work with, allowing for a wide variety of designs techniques when using this fragrance.

Great Blending Scent
Erika 2024-07-25

I love to use sandalwood to blend with other fragrance oils! I haven’t made it into a candle or soap just by itself as I’m not totally in love with it alone.

Indian Sandalwood
Katie 2024-07-13

This is not a spicy Australian type sandalwood, this is the sweet Indian type sandalwood and it's the closest I've found to the Indian sandalwood essential oil, which is what I was looking for, very nice fragrance.
