West Indian sandalwood oil – skin regenerating & relaxing
West Indian sandalwood oil has anti-inflammatory, cell-regenerating and soothing effects – ideal for irritated skin and inner restlessness.

Introduction / Brief description
West Indian sandalwood oil (INCI: Amyris Balsamifera Oil ) comes from the resin of an evergreen deciduous tree that grows wild in the Caribbean. This essential oil is known for its skin-regenerating and emotionally balancing properties. It has a warm, woody-spicy, aphrodisiac scent and is particularly suitable for the care of sensitive, inflamed skin—as well as for stress-relieving aromatherapy.
Origin & Production
West Indian sandalwood oil is extracted through gentle steam distillation from the resin of the "balsam tree," which grows wild in Haiti, among other places. The trees only produce the essential oil when they are about 30 years old. Unlike Indian sandalwood (Santalum album), which is a protected species, Amyris oil is sustainably harvested in the wild—an environmentally friendly alternative with a similar fragrance profile.
