Received my Sandalwood oil today. Had some reservations due to the large quantity at such a low price. I opened up the lid and was blown away. This stuff is amazing. I had made a beard oil with vanilla the night before which smelled great. I added 3 drops to the mixture and my wife nearly flipped out. Happy wife happy life. This stuff is amazing. Thanks
As you probably all know, sandalwood essential oil is very expensive, so this is the best price I have ever found for it. It costs 15-35 dollars for a 10ml of this elsewhere! The smell has a warm, strong, woodsy smell. It does not smell the same as other Australian sandalwoods, but the smell is wonderful and for the price and size...you can't beat it!
This is lovely. I used Young living which is excellent but extremely expensive. I believe this one to be the real deal and has a lovely scent. Relaxes me I use before bed time on my neck.
This is a superb scent, either on its own or mixed with other essential oils. A pippette is provided, ideal for dispensing very small amounts (which go a long way). Also, the customer service provided by the supplier was excellent. Although the cap broke in transit and I had to request a new bottle, they responded immediately and sent a new, intact bottle right away.
Pros:
Smells great. It is strong without being overpowering, so I only needed a little.
Did not irritate my skin or stain my clothing, even without a carrier oil like sweet almond oil
Includes a small plastic dropper
Cons:
Name is Misleading: this is NOT 100% pure sandalwood oil, and it is likely not organic
Company is sketchy/non-existant
NO INGREDIENTS LIST!
Horrible packaging: every time I order this oil, some ends up spilled inside the box and leaks out, despite the plastic covering the cap of the bottle
Feels a little greasy and leaves a slight residue; not very absorbent
How I use this:
I use this mostly as a dressing for my candles, but I will combine it with rose and opium scents, diluted with sweet almond, jojoba and/or grape seed oil or beeswax and wear it as a body fragrance.
Disclaimer: Scent is highly subjective. What smells good to me may smell horrible to someone else, what is pleasantly ever present for me may be too strong for another person. This review is based on my experience and my perception of this scent, which is influenced in part by how I use it.
I am reviewing this product based on the scent only, which I love. Like I said, your experience and opinion may differ based on what you use this oil for, how you use it and your sensitivity to ingredients and the scent. I was not given this product for free in exchange for a positive review, I was not given this product at all, I have purchased it 3 times now with my own funds.

didn't know what 2expect but it is surprisingly 2b 1 of my fav eo in term of smells.
every time d'love of my life wearing this, it reminds me of my home sweet home,
childhood sweet memories. my mom used2put bulk of woods in our wardrobe,
she said 2make everything in it 2smells nice & protect our clothes2 fr some bugs.
she even bought some ladies hand fan made fr sandalwood fr timor (timor leste) back on 80's.
this sun eo, sandalwood smells exactly like my mom & all those I remember grew up.
4that deserve 5 stars, however sun eo, sandalwood doesn't last long like my mom's &
they are bit mild2, that's why only 4 stars. my love put on his psoriasis &
he said it help him big deal. reduces itchy & taming/healing few on toes.
another pro fact it is delivered safely, nicely packed,
no leaking like many eo we ordered via amazon. will buy again
Surprisingly nice aroma, very woody, sneaky strong. A little goes a long way. Not as subtle as the India species, but nice none the less. I will be trying more of the Sun Organics products. If the other products from this company are comparable quality, they do represent a great value.
Before commenting let me clear up some of the confusion around these reviews. The product description states the following "Clear your mind and relax with the wonderful smell of Sandalwood (Australian)(Santalum Album)". Australian Sandalwood and Santalum Album are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. Australian Sandalwood is Santalum Spicatum, not Santalum Album. Santalum Album is Indian Sandalwood, and is very rare and expensive especially if it comes from the Mysore region. According to the bottle this is the much cheaper Australian, not Indian, sandalwood. Although it is a "true" sandalwood, this species has a very similar but slightly harsher/less smooth aroma. Having said all of that, it is a very nice Australian Sandalwood at a good price. Minus one star for the inaccurate description.
Absolutely love the smell of this. I hate when reviewers use words like "pleasant scent" or "very nice." That tells me nothing!!!!!! I could sit and breathe this stuff in all day long, it smells so good. Im not a floral or citrus fan, I like the woody and musky warmer scents... I read a lot about sandalwood EO helping with stress and anxiety among a million other things. Cedarwood oil sounded like the next best thing but my blood pressure is always on the low end and I saw a warning not to use it if you have low BP. This stuff is pricier but ugh. It smells SOOOO friggin good. Cant wait to use it for some homemade bath bombs. I took off a star because I just don't like how they stuffed the plastic dropper into the tiny box, all bent up. But it's still totally worth buying 😍
Smells really good
