Sandalwood Mysore - The Best Sandalwood On Earth

 

We only use Sandalwood Mysore essential oil, the purest and most precious of all Sandalwood oils. It contains no allergens and has known benefits to the skin.

Adherents to Ayurvedic medicine have been using sandalwood essential oil for thousands of years, and some recent studies show its amazing abilities to soothe the skin and promote the healing process through triggering smell receptors in the skin (recently discovered by scientists).

The stimulation of sandalwood olfactory receptors in the skin also has cancer chemo-preventive effect, as indicated in another study (Zhang and Dwivedi, 2011).
