So, I opened the packet of "red sandalwood" that I got at Earth Spirits.  It's sawdust. It's generic wood powder that literally smells like burning sawdust.  I'm disappointed. I looked high and low for actual red sandalwood or any kind of sandalwood incense. 

Turns out, it's endangered. 

Fuck.

Looks like I'll be leaving that ingredient out of my magickal incenses.  

Fuck.
