Created from the unique red wood of the sandalwood tree, sandalwood essential oil holds an exotic woody aroma to it. It also has hints of creaminess and warmth, with subtle undertones of earthiness, balsamic, and a slightly sweet floral note. Sandalwood essential oil has a long history of being used in traditional remedies and offers several different benefits when diffused.
The aroma of sandalwood is known to be highly sedative. It can improve sleep quality when diffused at night, help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep, and may also promote relaxation and a calm mood. Diffusing sandalwood oil can improve negative mood and attentiveness, which also makes it a good choice for using during mediation or study sessions.
