These Sandalwood Chandan sticks come from the sandalwood tress in South India. The Chandan Paste can be included in the charanamrta (water left after bathing the deities)

Please Note: This is sandalwood however now they are only taking branches from the sandalwood trees, not the whole tree like before, so the scent is not as strong as you may have experienced in the past. That very strong sandalwood is now not available, if available it is extremely expensive. So this is real sandalwood at a reasonable price but scent is less strong.
