おはようございます。KANOです。今回はこちらの記事から。
サンダルウッドについて。
最近、香りものはもう塗香でいいかなと思ってる。気分切り替えるタイミングで使うから、塗香くらいの香り方がちょうどいいやんと。
で、最終的に香水は一本だけ残す運用にしたくて、選ぶならGUERLAINサムサラかなあと思ってる。好みがころころ変わるからどうなるやらだけどw
metaphysical
意味 高度に抽象的な; 難解な; 現世から離れた.
Sometimes I venture down unusual paths for a researcher who’s passionate about perfumery. Not only are the historical aspects interesting to me in this perfumed adventure, but also the metaphysical connections that some cultures relate to their perfumes, essential oils, and fragrances.

persistent
意味 〈望ましくない状態が〉（必要以上に） 長続きする; 繰り返して起こる; 慢性的な
Reviewing some of my research, I came across the essence of sandalwood. Its delicately sweet, persistent, and enveloping scent urges me to share a little more about the history and uses of this raw material that has been so thoroughly explored in modern perfumery. First of all, sandalwood is a tree native to India and other parts of the Asian continent.

そうそう、サンダルウッドって甘さが長続きするんだけど、バニラより飽きないのよね。
attar
意味 [U] （バラの花から採った） ローズオイル, バラ油.
In addition to the benefits already mentioned, its calming power is an effective ally in the treatment of anxiety and insomnia. From my own experience I can say that pure sandalwood oil in the form of “attar” has brought me a great improvement in my quality of sleep. A few hours before bed, I apply it in small amounts on the top of the shoulders, back of the neck, and behind the ears.

これ、いわゆる香油だと思われるんだけど、このサンダルウッドメインバージョンがほしいんだよな…なので最近インド雑貨ECをずっと眺めてるw 塗香と香油と部屋用精油でいきたいけど、もし外したら在庫がなw
worship
意味 （神· 神聖なものなどに対する） 崇拝
In ceremonies of worship to some of the Indian gods such as Ganesh and Shiva, sandalwood oil is used as the main offering so that there is a greater connection between the spiritual and physical world. In these rituals the images that represent these gods are completely bathed in oil of sandalwood.

塗香も使い始めて「スピリチュアルはまったんか？」って感じだけどそういうわけでもなく、ただ祈りの場で使われる香りものって当然ながら精神的に落ち着くという、そういう普通の現代日本人的理由で欲してます。
elaborate
意味 凝った, 入念な, 精巧な〈デザインなど〉 複雑な, 込み入った
The elaborate Samsara composition brings powdery and floral aspects to sandalwood, making the perfume even more delicate and sensual when perceived. The touches of ylang, jasmine, violet, and iris lead the fragrance to the soft facet of sandalwood at a stunning level, while the amber and musky base of Samsara makes the sandalwood note play with its woody and sweet aspects.

まだボトル買ったことないけど、前回カウンターで試して絶対次買うと決めてる香り。シャリマー狙いだったんだけどねー、バニラとサンダルウッドだと最近やっぱサンダルウッド寄りなのよね。
perceive
意味 〈人が〉…をとらえる, 理解する
In Santal 33 by Le Labo, we perceive a more natural interpretation of sandalwood. Seeking its connection with traditional Indian “sandalia” and valuing the typical beauty of this oil, the inclusion of cardamom, leather, and cedar bring a spicy and sweet sensation that harmonizes with the clean and comfortable aspect of sandalwood, while the touch of amber and musk enhances the comfortable softness of the perfume.
