Amyris

Amyris, also known as West Indian sandalwood, presents a woody aroma often used as a base note in perfumery. The scent is balsamic and subtly sweet, with creamy, slightly smoky undertones. Perfumers appreciate its fixative properties, which enhance the longevity of other fragrance components. It offers a gentler, less intense woody profile compared to true sandalwood, lending warmth and sophistication to compositions.
