Overview: Amyris essential oil, commonly known as West Indian Sandalwood is obtained by steam distillation of the bark of AMYRIS BALSAMIFERA. Amyris is a tree found in the West Indies, particularly in Haiti and grows up to 60 feet. It is known as West Indian sandalwood though it has no relations with the actual East Indian sandalwood. The tree is in the citrus family and produces clusters of small white flowers. The oil has a pale yellow to amber yellow colour.  Amyris essential oil is often referred to as poor man’s sandalwood. The oil has gained high significance in the aromatherapy industry due to the scarcity of East Indian sandalwood oil. However, amyris essential oil has its own characteristic smoky woody, herbaceous, earthy aroma and is an excellent fixative in perfumes and aromatherapy blends. The amyris tree is in the “Torchwood” family due its fragrant flammable resin. We supply the Amyris essential oil of Haiti origin which is tested and packed in France.
