The Mountain Forest Blend was created as a 'woody' rather than 'flowery'
blend for those who don't like a floral scent in their massage wax.
This makes it particularly good for use on men and some have called it
the 'mens blend', as opposed to our 'Woman's Blend'. This is a bit
misleading as it is, of course, used by women everywhere! It is best
described as piney, smokey, woody and foresty. As the essentials
oils which are used are essentially base notes,
it's scent not easy to determine in the tub, and the true scent comes
out on application, when the essential oil scents are released.
In
combination, the qualities of the essential oils are aromatic,
astringent and sedative. They would be good for those with oily skins,
as the astringency will help with this. The aromatic, woody quality of
the oils make it closer in scent to aftershave than a bowl of flowers.
Sandalwood has been used in India for many centuries as a perfume and
incense and it is used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine.
Essential Oils used are Santalum spicatum, Cupressus sempivirens and Cupressus funebris.
It is commonly used in sports massage, when massaging men and recently in hot stone massage.
