Researchers from the University of Manchester found that applying sandalwood to the scalp helped prolong human hair growth.
The results of the study were published in the journal Nature Communications explaining how the experiment conducted with the synthetic material and human skin samples achieved startling results.
The team found that a receptor cell in the skin known as OR2AT4 was sensitive to chemicals in synthetic sandalwood and when applied to the skin a growth of keratinocytes was stimulated.
As skin healing and hair growth are closely related, the researchers hypothesised that if applying sandalwood would new hair be able to grow.
Studies have shown that exposing human skin cells to the artificial sandalwood-like odour Sandalore, could help improve hair loss.
Sandalore is often added to fragrances and moisturisers to give sandalwood its aroma.
It has also been used in previous experiments in investigating its effect on keratin.
Intrigued by the possible effect sandalore has on hair growth, researchers from the Monasterium Laboratory in Munster, exposed the human scalp tissue to sandalore with impressive results.
