AROMATHERAPY HAWAII
Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood

For over 30 years Maryann Rose has worked to perfect the art of creating aromatherapy products from the world’s finest essential oils and organic ingredients. These products, offered through her business - Hana Nai’a, are used in some of the finest spas in Hawai’i and by discriminating people throughout the world. Maryann’s products have always been an extension of her personal mission to spread her love of the earth, to be its committed steward and to responsibly share the spirit of its bounty.

Through an incredible story of good fortune, Maryann met and has been embraced by an amazing Hawaiian family, who share the spirit of her mission. They also extend her mission with the skills, commitment and passion to reforest and sustainably harvest the great sandalwood forests of the Hawaiian Islands. Their company, Haloa ‘Aina, has a primary commitment to the ‘aina (the land). They use the benefits of its bounty to contribute to a sustainable economy for the Hawaiian community. By replanting the forest, responsibly and sustainably harvesting the appropriate wood, naturally extracting the oil from the heartwood, effectively using all of the wood by-products, selling its oil and products throughout the world, their business model uses the proceeds to plant more trees, invest in more land and provide wages for the effort. The Lee ohana (family) aspires to create a sustainable economic model that enhances the beauty, the community and the spirit of the Hawaiian Islands for generations.

Maryann, through Hana Nai’a, has created a new line of products that celebrate these two incredible stories. The Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood Line represents products that combine her personal mission and include high quality ingredients that are sustainably produced in the Hawaiian Islands. Maryann believes in the Lee’s sustainable economic model for the Hawaiian Islands. In contributing to the success of this combined mission, 100% of the profits from the Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood line will be reinvested in the Hawaiian economy. The objective of Hana Nai’a’s Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood line is to combine the best of Hawai’i, to create the best for Hawai’i.

“My heart is deeply moved knowing that these sacred trees are not sacrificed in any way as part of the distillation process. My senses are keen to its light, sweet, woody, rich fragrance.” Maryann Rose
