Sandalwood Amyris Essential Oil, often referred to as West Indian Sandalwood, is derived from the wood of the Amyris balsamifera tree, native to the Caribbean and Central America. Unlike true Sandalwood, which comes from the Santalum genus, Amyris is a distinct species that offers a more affordable alternative with similar aromatic properties. The history of Amyris Essential Oil dates back to indigenous cultures in the Caribbean, where it was traditionally used for medicinal purposes and as a torchwood due to its high oil content, which burns brightly and slowly. The oil is extracted through steam distillation, yielding a thick, pale-yellow liquid with a sweet, woody, and slightly balsamic aroma.

Sandalwood Amyris Essential Oil is prized in aromatherapy for its calming and grounding effects, making it a popular choice for meditation, stress relief, and promoting restful sleep. Its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties make it beneficial for skin care, helping to soothe and heal minor skin irritations, cuts, and acne. Additionally, it is used in perfumery as a base note, adding depth and warmth to fragrance blends. The oil is also employed in massage therapy for its relaxing and muscle-relieving properties.

Sandalwood Amyris Essential Oil continues to be valued for its versatile applications in both emotional well-being and physical health, bridging the gap between traditional uses and contemporary holistic practices.
