Mysore Sandalwood Raw Chips, Aged Old-Stock, High Oil Content, 50g

For the collector who heats slowly and listens — aged Mysore sandalwood in its most direct form, dense with oil, creamy and warm.

Mysore sandalwood occupies a singular position among aromatic woods. Old-growth trees from the Karnataka region of India — aged decades in the forest, then decades more after harvest — develop a density of oil that defines the benchmark for sandalwood worldwide. This material is old-stock: aged, settled, fully mature. The oil content is visible and tactile. The fragrance it carries is not the faint sweetness of commercial sandalwood. It is deep.

On indirect heat, the opening is warm and milky — a rich, creamy sandalwood that fills the space gently without announcing itself. The heart deepens into a lactonic sweetness, smooth and enveloping, with a faint nuttiness underneath. The dry-down is long, balsamic, skin-close — the kind of fragrance that lingers in a room well after the heat is gone. This is old-stock material; the fragrance has had time to settle into itself.

The source describes the oil as fully present — oil-rich chips that respond well to warming. On a heated burner, a small amount produces a sustained, room-filling fragrance. The material is suitable for indirect-heat incense use, for collectors building a reference library of classic aromatic woods, and for those who want to understand what the sandalwood standard actually smells like at its source.

Each jar contains 50g of aged Mysore sandalwood chips. A small amount per session is sufficient.
