Essential Oil - Mysore Sandalwood

Essential oils are super concentrated oils made from plants. Some are made from the bark, some from leaves, some from roots, others from flowers, and some are even from the skin of fruits. All of Ollie's oils are 100% pure, brought straight from farmers and distillers to you.

Product benefits

Indian Sandalwood is considered to be one of the most valuable trees in the world. Oil produced from the heartwood of these trees has a mild woody aroma with subtle sweet notes. Sandalwood Oil is known for calming and astringent properties, and is considered to be a magic potion for skin ailments! It is soothing on the skin and can help to soothe a sunburn or an insect bite. The masculine, woodsy smell of Sandalwood is very calming.
