Essential Oil – Sandalwood Amyris Oil – 10ml

£6.35

Essential oils, extracted from aromatic plants, are widely used for their therapeutic properties and aromatic qualities in aromatherapy and natural wellness practices.

Amyris essential oil is also called West Indian Sandalwood oil because of its similarity to that found in the East Indian region. It is obtained by steam distillation from the bark and branches of the Amyris balsamifera tree.

This oil is a popular choice for aromatherapy due to its warm, woody, and slightly sweet scent, and it is often used for its calming, grounding, and balancing properties.

Amyris Balsamifera is a less expensive substitute for East Indian Sandalwood. The scent is not quite as striking as that of the East Indian Sandalwood, but it does possess similar therapeutic properties and when used in Aromatherapy, it is an ethical substitute without the same environmental costs.
