Whether you are a practitioner of meditation or not, Buddha Wood essential oil can be transformative in its ability to increase mindfulness and lasting peace. We all have a lot on our minds with every day to-dos. Allow Buddha Wood essential oil to inspire grounding and help you stay in the present moment.

Yoga instructors often use Buddha Wood at the beginning or end of a class to diminish stress. Its woody and slightly smoky aroma lends itself to perfume blends with deep, exotic and romantic undertones.

Extracted through steam distillation, Buddha Wood is derived from the wood of a small tree found in the dry lands of Southern Australia. The bountiful trees are wild harvested. While sometimes called “Australian Sandalwood’ it is most definitely not Sandalwood.

The timber shavings from this small evergreen tree is distilled for nearly 48 hours which produces an exotic oil that blends well with Muhuhu and other wood derived essential oils. The essential oil is a deep coppery-red brown color. The aroma of Buddha Wood essential oil is subtle and incredibly balanced: woodsy, mossy, and light leathery-smoky notes. Some high-end fragrance companies use Buddha Wood in men’s cologne, for its masculine bouquet. It is equally utilized in androgynous blends.
