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, antiseptic 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.
