Sandalwood Album Essential Oil

Sandalwood Album reveals a smooth, velvety aroma defined by creamy woods, subtle sweetness, and gentle balsamic undertones. Never sharp or dry, its character is rounded and meditative, with a natural skin-like warmth that unfolds slowly over time.

Sandalwood Album functions primarily as a base note, prized for both its olfactory beauty and fixative qualities.

Recommended concentration:
Fine fragrance: 0.5–5%, depending on desired richness

Blends harmoniously with:
Florals (rose, jasmine, ylang ylang)
Resins (frankincense, benzoin, labdanum)
Spices (cardamom, coriander)
Musks and amber accords

Suitable for non-perfumery applications including luxury skincare, balms, massage oils, soaps, and incense-style home fragrance

It lends depth, softness, and exceptional longevity to both minimalist and complex compositions.
