Australian Sandalwood Nut CO₂ Oil
A pale-yellow carrier oil extracted from Santalum spicatum kernels using CO₂. Distinct from sandalwood essential oil, it has a light, non-greasy feel and soft woody, creamy, balsamic and resinous nuances.
Its fatty-acid profile is especially rich in oleic and ximenynic acids, making it suitable for skincare and haircare formulations.
