Botany
Buddha wood is a shrub/small tree native to Australia and is known commonly as false sandalwood or desert rosewood.  it grows as a multi-stemmed shrub or small tree up to 30ft in height. The leaves are linear to linear-lanceolate. It has white (occasionally pale pinkish-mauve) flowers.

Traditional Folklore
There are recordings of indigenous people using this plant for its antibacterial qualities and to treat cuts and sores. In the recent past, this tree was wild harvested as a substitute for Sandalwood, however, there is a fair difference between the aromas of Buddha wood & Sandalwood. The tree was also harvested and used for fence posts. Around 1925, an Australian chemist and Australian essential oil pioneer first tested the oil and noted its unique properties and recommended it as a perfume fixative.
