Buddha Wood Essential Oil

Buddha Wood Essential Oil is sustainably wild harvested and extracted via steam distillation of the wood and bark of the Eremophila mitchelli tree, a native Australian shrub-like plant found on the east coast. The oil is known by various other names such as Desert Rosewood and False Sandalwood, and is often harvested as a more affordable substitute for Sandalwood due to its similar, but distinctly different aroma.

With its woody, earthy and slightly smoky yet balsamic aroma, Buddha Wood Oil is widely used in the personal fragrance industry, particularly for men, as it is often described as a ‘masculine’ fragrance. Not just useful for fragrance though, other Buddha Wood Essential Oil benefits have been known to:

• Provide a clarifying, healing, and relaxing atmosphere, especially helpful for use during meditation and yoga sessions.
• Helpful in aiding and stimulating the immune system.
• Because of its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, Buddha Wood Oil is excellent for helping to ease tired and sore muscles and joints.
• Boasting natural antibacterial and disinfectant benefits, it’s excellent for aiding the healing of cuts and small wounds. In fact, did you know because of these properties, the leaves of the Buddha Wood tree have traditionally been used by the Aboriginal Peoples of Australia in native remedies and medicines.
• In addition, Budda Wood Oil has a chemical structure that is similar in profile to Agarwood and Vetiver
