The Fragrant House

It’s the weekend so it must be time for ! Today is all about the exotic Sandalwood, a deep, woody scent that is a mix of floral, rich, balsamic, soft, and sweet accents.

The oil is extracted from powdered wood via steaming, with the best examples hailing from India’s Mysuru region. The telltale’s a fresh green note among the heavier timbers. 

Sandalwood’s potency sees it forming the base note of myriad fragrances, but there’s also brightness at play that other timbers simply don’t possess. As such, it can often magnify the impact of floral notes such as rose and jasmine.

Sandalwood is a feature in many of our product. Most notably, Sandalwood room spray by Lothantique and The Geranium, Cashmere and Sandalwood candle by LanternCove.

Happy Valentines to all you fragrance lovers. I hope you create the day that makes you feel special and loved for who you are!
