The Amyris plant got its name from the Greek word ‘Amyron’ (meaning intensely scented).The history of this plant is quite insignificant due to the multiple names given to it. Amyris was first called by other names such as balsam torchwood, candle wood, Buddha wood and West Indian sandalwood among others.
