Amyris has a warm, soft, woody/musty aroma and is known to be one of the oldest materials used for aromatic and perfumery uses; it has been used for at least 4,000 years. It is believed that God instructed King Solomon to make his temple furniture from Amyris such was its strength and spirtuality. Amyris is more commonly known as West Indian Sandalwood, as it can be used as a cheaper alternative to genuine Sandalwood.
Amyris is recommended for stress and has an euphoric, uplifiting effect on the psyche.
