Essential oil Sandal - 10 ml

Amyris Essential Oil (West Indian Sandalwood)

Often referred to as West Indian Sandalwood due to its warm, woody aroma, Amyris essential oil is a more affordable alternative to true sandalwood. Extracted from the wood and branches of the Amyris balsamifera tree, this oil is prized for its soothing and grounding fragrance. In Haiti, where the tree grows naturally, its resin-rich wood is called “candlewood” because it burns easily on its own.

Benefits and properties:

• Promotes relaxation, eases anxiety and supports restful sleep
• Acts as a natural aphrodisiac and muscle relaxant
• Supports respiratory wellness during colds, coughs, and bronchitis
• Soothes skin and helps improve hydration
• Traditionally used for urinary and intimate care
• Ideal for meditation due to its calming, balsamic aroma

Background:

Although it was often confused with sandalwood, the botanical identity of Amyris was officially distinguished in 1886 through leaf analysis. Ancient civilizations considered essential oils like Amyris more precious than gold for their aromatic and healing value.

Precautions:

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not use during pregnancy or on young children unless advised by a professional.
