Method of Extraction:

Steam distillation of the flowers.

Description:

Heady, floral, sensual aroma. Clear in colour.

Suggested uses:

For a sensual massage blend, mix 2 drops of Ylang Ylang Complete and 2 drops of Sandalwood in 10ml of Sweet Almond oil. Ylang Ylang is one of the most popular essential oils for diffusing. It has a wonderfully exotic aroma in its own right but blends well with Sandalwood, Bergamot, Rose, Jasmine, May Chang or Sweet Orange.

Did you know?

When Ylang Ylang is distilled, the first fraction is separated out and called Ylang Ylang Extra. The next fraction is known as Ylang Ylang Complete then I,II and finally III. Ylang Ylang I contains more of the heavier, floral base notes. Ylang Ylang III tends to go into soaps and everyday products.

Specific Safety Advice
