LET US DIVE INTO THE WORLD OF WOODS: SANDALWOOD IN PERFUMES
LET US DIVE INTO THE WORLD OF WOODS: SANDALWOOD IN PERFUMES
In the world of scents, there exist, four fragrance families, into which all your perfumes are categorized. While each family has its uniqueness, one of the families that stands out to us is the woody family. This family has perfumes that are rich in warm, damp, resinous, and even smoky notes. Coming from the essential oils of the moss and wood of different trees. Readily bringing sophistication and elegance to their composition.
As abundant as the woods in the forest are, there aren’t many that have the sweet and creamy smell that Sandalwood possesses. If you would want to know more about Sandalwood: the most distinctively sweetest wood on a perfumer’s rack, give us your hand and let us take you on a walk through the forest.
The Sandalwood Scent
Count one, two most expensive perfume ingredients and you have Sandalwood. Though rare, this ingredient is one of the most commonly used in designer perfumes as a base note.
Recognized as a masculine olfactory family for a long time, woods now bloom in feminine scents to bring them a touch of audacity.
How Sandalwood essence is derived—
Sandalwood essential oil is derived from a slow-growing, but overly harvested parasitic plant called Santalum album. This said tree is grown primarily in India. It is grown by attaching itself as a sucker to the root of other trees. The oil is gotten by chopping the roots or wood and also by steam distillation. What marvels everyone is how the scent can still be relishing years after it was harvested.
Sandalwood as a perfume ingredient and more—
Sandalwood in perfumes confers a sweet, fresh chypre and striking aroma of the wood. Its ability to excellently blend and harmonize other ingredients in perfumes makes it a valued fixative. No wonder, in ancient times this super precious wood has been significantly known for its mystical fragrance.
Sandalwood was used to carve deity representations while its oil was incense for meditation. Aside, its spiritual uses, it was also useful in traditional medicine as a sedative agent, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory amongst others.
Sandalwood’s association with other notes—
Sandalwood is that ingredient that exquisitely blends with lavender, cloves, frankincense, black pepper, jasmine, and patchouli. And perfectly enhancing the longevity and volatility of other notes. The scent of sandalwood is suitable for cold weather. As it provides a creamy and subtle feel.
Unlike other woody notes, sandalwood has a fresh and bright edge that can not be overemphasized. Equally, this magnificent ingredient is also perfect for warm weather when combined with more fruity notes or florals, enveloping the wearer in a balmy veil of fragrance.
It stars in both male and more than 50 percent of good female perfumes alike. Bringing to a composition a creamy, velvety appearance for a sensual and warm juice. Additionally, sandalwood has a lingering quality that makes its presence in perfumes the perfect sophisticated unisex fragrance you.
Sandalwood perfumes—
Sandalwood can specifically be smelt in perfumes like Dior Dolce Vita, Dior Hypnotic Poison, Bleu De Chanel, Burberry for men, Jean-Paul Gaultier Le Male, Dior Fahrenheit, and many more.
When shopping for your next perfume, look out for perfumes with Sandalwood in their composition. Give it a try! We are sure you’ll love it.
