100% sandalwood skin care and fragrance items derived from nature.
The essential oil used is sandalwood, which is endemic to the island of Ildefin in New Caledonia.
(* Since we are currently switching production areas, there are organic products from Australia and wild species from New Caledonia.) )
Because I fell in love with its wild species, it is not 100% organic pure.
01 Visit the site and trade directly
Set foot in New Caledonia, located in the South Pacific, which is famous as "the closest island to heaven"
We transport and trade essential oils directly with local producers.
On the island of Ile des Pins, where its own ethnic culture remains even today, the rituals of the Kanak culture
After doing the coutum, we visited a forest where sandalwood grows naturally.
The smell of the forest where sandalwood grows, the richness of the soil, and the breath of sandalwood, which are carefully protected by indigenous peoples.
By actually experiencing it on site, a relationship of mutual trust has been built.
Ile des Pins Island is characterized by being an island formed by the uplift of the ground from the sea, and is mineral
In the soft soil rich in sandalwood, there is a lot of relatively thick sandalwood
It is growing. We use only sandalwood, which is endemic to the island of Ile des Pins.
02 Sustainability
In order not to adversely affect the natural environment of Ile des Pins due to excessive harvesting of sandalwood, we have set certain standards for annual production.
In addition, for every one sandalwood tree cut, four seedlings are planted to protect the forest. Rather than planting seedlings in a straight line, we try to plant them in a dispersed manner so that they are closer to the original state of the forest.
I also planted a tree in April last year.
In a sustainable, environmentally and future-responsible way, we want to convey the goodness of sandalwood from the island of Ildefin, New Caledonia.
I always feel that it is because of this forest and the producers that Byaku is able to convey this goodness in Kyoto.
