Note: Base
Strength of Aroma: Soft, woody, warm and musty. Although commonly referred to as West Indian Sandalwood oil, this oil is not a true replacement for Sandalwood essential oil.

Lovely scent, hard to use
I had never used this scent before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I wanted something with an earthy, woody scent, and this delivers. I love the warmth it adds! The only down side is that the oil is so viscous that is was practically impossible to get out of the dropper. I lost some oil as I tried to figure out the easiest way to get it out. I am looking forward to using it more!

nice but NOT sandalwood or even close
nice oil but is NOTHING LIKE SANDALWOOD in any way shape or form. so if your looking for the sweet powdery dry wood sensual smell of sandalwood . ths is not for you.

Woody, Sweet
Not as woody and sweeter than other Amyris oils I've used, but it still works nicely as a subtle and not overpowering woody scent.

Amyris Oil
I was very pleased with the oil and it's quality, unfortunately the bottle wasn't sealed well and the oil leaked out a bit. It arrived with many other bottles and the fact that it had been wrapped and shipped so well prevented any of the other bottles from contamination. Could have been far worse and accidents happen. Overall very happy

Great Vanilla Substitute in CP soap.
I was looking for an EO to get the same end-notes as vanilla for my CP soap recipes. This will work great mixed with other EOs.
