What's your favorite sandalwood blend?

[BlackDog]

I bought a bottle of Sandalwood FO from WSP, and it's been sitting around here a couple months. I've decided to put it to use - I'm going to split a batch and use straight sandalwood on half and (in case that is a little too "manly" smelling for me and I have to give all that to my husband) I'd like to try the other half in a blend of some kind. I've got lots of scents around to try, but what's your favorite blend?

ZANY’S CIN GIN PATCH - Guys love this soap in the shower!

1 part Clove EO + Cinnamon EO*
2 parts Cedarwood VA EO (to round off)
4 parts Sandlewood FO (Sub for Patchouli EO)
8 parts Ginger Essence (Origins Type) FO

**Mix 1 part Clove Bud EO + 3 parts Cinnamon Bark EO then add 1 part of this to the blend. Note: Mix up a batch of this blend and use it (with a light touch since both are "heaters" in soap and "sensitizers" for skin) whenever a blend calls for clove or cinnamon or both.

If you try it, let me know how you like it.

I love sandalwood and find it blends well with just about anything. One favorite is with neroli or orange blossom, add in a little of something fruity like pear, and if you have it a little champagne and/or Amber.

I like Crafters Choice Oakmoss and Sandalwood; it is a blend from WSP. Here is a good masculine blend that I got from Rainbow Meadows, 3 parts sandalwood, 1 part myrrh, 1 part frankincense, 1 part patchouli. I use essential oils for everything except the sandalwood in that blend. Sandalwood EO is so expensive that I use a good sandalwood FO in the blend.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing it! If you don't mind and it isn't too much trouble, could you post the link where you found it?

I also like this fragrance but apparently my customers do not so I am using it up for us

This is where I got the recipe from. Go to Sandalwood Body Lotion. The amount is in drops and I calculated in percentage.
