Brachylaena hutchinsii is a tree from East Africa, particularly Kenya. Hard wood with a warm woody aroma.

The name 'African sandalwood' is a commercial misnomer, not botanically related to Santalum (true sandalwood).

Family Asteraceae.

Sometimes used as a cheaper substitute for true sandalwood in perfumery, but chemistry and aroma differ markedly.

Caution with sourcing, Brachylaena hutchinsii is at risk of overharvesting.
