Sandalwood Australian Santalum Spicatum
Source : Australia.
Sandalwood oil is steam-distilled from the heartwood. It has a woody, balsamic aroma. Australian Sandalwood is regarded as an acceptable substitute for traditional East Indian Sandalwood (santalum album), which has become rarer and hence more highly priced. This sandalwood is grown in Western Australia and is from an environmentally friendly, renewable resource.
