Santalum Album
This tree yields the true sandalwood of India.
This fragrant wood is in two colors, procured from the same tree;
the yellow-colored wood is from the heart and the white-colored
from the exterior, the latter not so fragrant. The Chinese
manufacture it into musical instruments, small cabinets, boxes,
and similar articles, which are insect proof. From shavings of the
wood an essential oil is distilled, which is used in perfumery.
