APHRODISIAC



It's said that the spicy, sweet, warm and velvety tones of Indian sandalwood can awaken your sexual desires.

The precious heartwood of the Indian sandalwood tree can be carved into beads, combs, and religious sculptures - all whilst retaining its warm aromatic aroma.

The Hindus of ancient India were the first to engage in widespread use of Indian sandalwood beads or ‘Mala’ to count prayers.

As travellers came through the Indian subcontinent and Indians ventured beyond their borders, the practice of counting prayers on a string of beads spread to other faiths including Buddhism, Islam, Catholicism, Jainism and Sikhism
