Palo Santo wood
The Palo Santo tree is native to South America and translates to "Holy Wood", aromatically known for being clean and woody. While aging in a dry forest, Palo Santo trees will become more fragrant over time. Their resin can be compared to that of Aloeswood. Also used for purification.
Patchouli, East Indian
East Indian Patchouli is intense with clean dry down aroma. Patchouli is used topically in aromatherapy for dry, chapped, or weathered skin, and is known therapeutically for its regenerative properties. Inhalation of patchouli oil helps to balance and stimulate the pituitary gland, so it often used to help ground and stabilize the emotions. Patchouli is one of the most popular essential oils in the world, used heavily as a perfumery component and worn as a personal scent for its earthy appeal. It is a very rich and long-lasting oil. The aroma can be rather crude when the oil is young and grows more refined with age, as it becomes a valued "vintage oil". The scent of Patchouli will linger longer than most other Essential Oils, and should be used sparingly. Great skin care ingredient and cell rejuvenator. Helps to find peace of mind and is a wonderful aphrodisiac. Also a good masking agent for unpleasant aromas. Due to its remarkable staying power, Patchouli is a great fixative ingredient (a fixative is a substance that binds other compounds, slowing down their evaporation and thereby making their fragrance last longer). It blends well with labdanum, vetiver, sandalwood, cedarwood, oakmoss, geranium, clove bud, lavender, rose, neroli, bergamot, cinnamon bark, myrrh, clary sage, and oriental-type bases.
Patchouli, Tunisian
We cannot verify that the Tunisian Patchouli is 100% essential oil, however it has a lovely aroma that would be appropriate for wearing or in a diffuser. Do not use for therapuetic purposes. We've sold this oil for a long time. I was hesitant in including it under Essential Oils as I am dubious to it's purity. It is much sweeter with a powdery overtone. The egyptian supplier doesn't speak good english and cannot verify it's CofA. BUT, I list it here for nostaglia and there are customers who have grown to love it. However, it is not the familiar tone of Patchouli. Personally, I think it has orris root in it. So, here it is.
Plai
Plai is in the ginger family and is distilled from the fresh roots, as opposed to the dried, giving a more pleasant aroma.

Saffron Absolute

Wood tones similar to cedar. We cannot verify this oil is natural.
Sandalwood, Mysore 1
This is one of our favorite oils in the entire shop. It's hard not to put this oil in every blend. From the Mysore region in India. Great for meditation. Centering, grounding and acts as a emotional balancer. The aroma of this oil has a slightly sweet top note with a fantastic wood tone that keeps going and going.
Sandalwood, Mysore 2
Another Mysore Sandalwood, heavier than Mysore 1. We need no excuses to carry another Sandalwood.
Sandalwood, Mysore 2
A classic Mysore Sandalwood, very woody with an animalistic undertone.
Sandalwood, Mysore 3
Very heady. One drop in a blend has a great staying power.
Sandalwood, Tunisian
Again, we cannot certifiy that this oil is 100% Natural. This oil comes from an Egyptian fellow that we've been dealing with for over 20 years. He has no idea what a CofA is and extracts his oils to smell great. So, this oil should not be used in place of a therapuetic oil and would be best suited for diffusing or a couple of drops on the skin.
Spikenard, Green
Sweet and woody. Spikenard has been used for centuries for its spiritual connection to meditation and prayer.

Not sure of the therapuetic properties of Zinziba. Has a similar tone to Buddhawood. Very earthy. We started carrying this oil for the sole reason that it started with a Z.
