Our newest shipment is harvested from young heartwood, so the oil content is not as high as some of our sandalwood chips. A much lighter fragrance perfect for loose incense blends.
Sandalwood Chips - Santalum album - from Indonesia produce a warm, sweet, buttery, woody fragrance and has been one of the most prized incense ingredients for thousands of years. The fragrance of sandalwood creates an relaxing and harmonizing atmosphere of calm and supports the search for inner peace, reflection and balance. Early in India, people observed that termites never attacked sandalwood. For that reason, they considered it a symbol of vitality. sandalwood has long been used in Ayurvedic medicine as a remedy for bladder and kidney infections, inflammations, skin problems, respiratory problems and many other illnesses.

I purchased this to use in my incense. It's more than I expected. The smell and oil content has really improved my blend. I'll be using it from now on....or until I find something better.
