Renowned over the centuries for its’ fine oriental aroma & powerful therapeutic properties, precious Sandalwood was always a most sought after Ayurveda herb – from the great Moghul empires of India to the Royal kingdoms of ancient Ceylon.

Throughout Asian history, Sandalwood has been widely used in perfumery, beauty care & powerful Ayurveda formulae.  Its’ rarity as well as its exotic sensual fragrance made Sandalwood mostly the preserve of aristocracy & royalty, with Sandalwood milks, baths, oils & potions being a mainstay of most Royal well-being rituals. Enjoyed both by women & men alike, palaces too were adorned with naturally fragrant sandalwood furniture & fragrant sandalwood fans.

 

Sandalwood in Ayurveda

The heartwood & roots of the tree are the source of the heady, heavy & aromatic sandalwood essential oil – with the longest-lasting aroma of all essential oils.

Overall, sandalwood is sensual, relaxing and uplifting. When used in massages and baths, sandalwood is cooling and calming.

Tonics made with potent Sandalwood powder are prescribed to be particularly beneficial for feminine health issues. Pastes of Sandalwood were also prescribed to soothe skin infections as well as purify the skin.
