Lao Shan Sandalwood is a treasure of nature, cherished by scholars and artists throughout history. It is one of the four famous fragrances ('Chen', 'Tan', 'Long', 'She') and is revered as "gold among wood" and the "sacred tree" in Buddhism. Old Lao Shan Sandalwood material is precious and scarce; it takes centuries to mature, and often, nine out of ten sandalwood trees are hollow, resulting in extremely low utilization. Furthermore, after harvesting, the wood must be aged for decades to allow the sandalwood molecules to reach their ideal fragrance profile and for the wood structure to stabilize. The aroma of Lao Shan Sandalwood is mellow and醇厚, known for its ability to relieve fatigue and bring tranquility to the mind.
