50ml Essential Oil - Amyris Sandalwood

Latin Name: Amyris Balsamifera

Part of Plant Used: Wood and Branches

Origin: Jamaica 

Extraction Method: Steam Distillation

Amyris Essential Oil is also called West Indian Sandalwood oil because its smell is reminiscent of Sandalwood. It is obtained by steam distillation from the bark and branches of the Amyris balsamifera tree. Due to its high oil content, this wood burns by itself, like a candle, and is therefore called candlewood by the locals. It is a less expensive alternative to pure sandalwood.

This oil has been used to clean wounds and to treat flu, diarrhea. It is said to be very effective in relieving cystitis and vaginal infections. When used in a vaporizer, it helps to relieve anxiety and depression, insomnia and acts as an aphrodisiac, relieving impotence and frigidity. It is used to treat coughs and colds and bronchitis. Its calming properties are said to aid during meditation. It is also a muscle relaxant and emollient.

The botanical origin of the tree producing this oil was unknown until 1886, when major differences between this plant and true sandalwood were identified by microscopic examination of the leaves. The Amyris balsamifera tree grows wild in Haiti. Because of their healing and aromatic properties, essential oils were considered more valuable than gold to ancient humans.
