Sandalwood Oil
Sandalwood, of the genus Santalum, is a genus of woody flowering trees and plants. Most species are semi-parasitic and several produce a highly aromatic wood. The most common species are Indian sandalwood (Santalum album) and Australian sandalwood (Santalum spicatum), although other species are used for their scent as well. The oil that distilled from eucarya spicata species, amyris and so on is not belonging to the Sandalwood Oil. Different sandalwood species are indigenous to India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh (S. album), and Australia (S. spicatum and S. lanceolatum), as well as to several Pacific Islands such as Hawaii (S. ellipticum), Fiji and Tonga (S. yasi), Papua New Guinea (S. macgregorii), Vanuatu and New Caledonia (S. austrocaledonicum) and French Polynesia (S. insulare). Traditionally, sandalwood is wild-harvested, since cultivation is difficult. Because of over- and illegal harvesting, supplies of sandalwood, especially Indian sandalwood, have decreased considerably over the last 10-15 years. Consequently, efforts to cultivate sandalwood have increased; Australia now has several plantations of Indian sandalwood trees.
