shirah Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Hello everyone,I was wondering if anyone has ever had Sandalwood imported? If so, did you have a problem? I recently received an order of what I thought was Sandalwood, but it was labeled Rosewood. When I contacted the vendor about the error, I was told that it was actually Sandalwood, but since it could not be exported as such so it had to be labeled Rosewood? As someone new to EO, I was not sure if this was correct. And, as someone is law enforcement for 18 years, I certainly don't want to be violating any US laws. Have you heard of this as well? I don't want to say my product contains Sandalwood if it's not actually so... and since I've never ordered pure essential Sandalwood, I have no idea if the scent is that of Sandalwood or something else.:undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janette Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I have never heard of such a thing. Generally Rosewood is any hard fruit wood. At present, sandalwood prices are high for EO. I suspect your supplier is trying to pull a fast one. Anyone who has ever smelled sandalwood will know in an instant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirah Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 Thanks Janette. I had the same feeling, but wasn't sure if that was standard. Wanted someone else's input before I requested a credit. I ordered 10 oz. for $58. I'll be requesting an adjustment for the charges from my credit card company. Gosh I hate being cheated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
