Verse 7.115.9

एषोऽसौ मलयो लयोग्रलवलीवल्लीलसच्चन्दनस्फीतामोदमदाद्रसेन तरवो वक्रे क्रियन्ते त्रिभिः ।
सज्वालोदहनाक्षसंस्थितकपोलोष्मोदयोत्ताण्डवे अङ्गुष्ठाङ्गुलिभिर्यथोष्णककणास्तप्ता यथा योषिताम् ॥ ९ ॥

Here is this Malaya mount on the south, growing the fragrant sandal wood, which converts all other woods to its nature. Its sweet paste decorates the persons of gods, men and demons, and is put as a spot on the forehead like the frontal eye [of] Siva; and is sprinkled over the body be like the bedewed persons of females with sweat.
