I was excited to get this Sandalwood oil. And when I opened it, everything looked promising. However, after I put a drop or two of the oil on the back of my hand so I could take my first sniff? I was disappointed. It smelled nothing like sandalwood-scented soaps, lotions %26 candles I've bought before. Actually, it reminds me of the old, wooden, empty, cigar box my grampa used to have. Tee-hee. Kind of a bare wood smell, a lot like the fresh sawdust I've smelled on my dad's garage floor, before.
It's not offensive or anything. Just isn't the same as other sandalwood-scented products I've previously purchased. I bought a sandalwood hand-soap recently...and liked it so much that I wanted to add the same or similar scent to some of my OTHER liquid soaps, body sprays %26 unscented lotions. But ultimately, this won't work. : (
