Hi Libby,

I don't think that folks here hate rosewood. I think it's just that

because it's endangered, folks are now reluctant to buy it and

support production of an unsustainable material. I think that the

way you use your rosewood is the ultimate way to honor and respect

it because it is endangered. Like folks do with true sandalwood and

others. And I think you're lucky and blessed to have so much of it!

On another (base)note, I was sort of dismayed to see on the

Basenotes site that they're producing sandalwood-scented postage

stamps in India. I thought, what a sad waste of an endangered

wood. Then I thought maybe it's synthetic, or made from the

leaves. I hope so.

Warm regards,

Andrine
