White sandalwood is appreciated as an aromatic wood material in fragrance and craft traditions. Herby Factor offers raw chips and ground powder. These forms are useful for different projects, but the listing does not independently certify the Santalum species, heartwood grade, origin or authenticity.
Wood and distilled oil are different
FAO's plant-resource information describes sandalwood chips used in incense and oil obtained from roots and heartwood for perfumery. Chips or powder are not a substitute for a measured quantity of essential oil in a formula. A powder's aroma also does not establish its oil content.
Choose the form for the project
Chips preserve the visible wood structure and suit applications designed for solid material. Powder is more easily distributed through a suitable craft mixture. Assess a small sample for aroma, texture and compatibility before increasing the quantity, particularly where a repeatable finish matters.
Confirm suitability before skin use
A wood material is not automatically a cosmetic-grade face mask. Request the relevant grade and formulation guidance before an external application, and do not ingest it. Avoid inhaling wood dust. If a project involves burning, use appropriate equipment and ventilation; fragrance does not prove air purification.
Ask about sourcing
Specify chips or powder and the origin or authenticity information your project requires. Keep sealed in a cool, dry place. Business buyers should verify the available documentation rather than assuming every pale aromatic wood is equivalent.
