What is Sandalwood?
Sandalwood is considered a sacred oil by the Buddhist and Hindi religions and is often used to promote prayer, meditation, and yoga practices.
Its oil, and its corresponding aroma, are obtained from the bark of a shrub known as citrine sandal, originating in India, Australia, and Indonesia.
The place linked to the production of Sandalwood products is Mysore, in southern India. Unfortunately, the extensive and blind use of this tree has endangered its existence, and currently, the Indian Santalum album is rare, expensive, and the trees are under government protection.
Another Sandalwood with pleasing olfactory qualities is Santalum Austrocaledonicum. It’s currently the most in aromatherapy for the sustainability of its production.
Years ago there was no talk of sustainability, and therefore trees and plants were used without thinking of the consequences … which were then seen and have been disastrous.
