Description: Ylang ylang oil is extracted from Cananga odorata – also known as flower of flowers. Ylang ylang is a tall tropical tree about
20meters (60 feet) high with large, tender, fragrant pink, mauve or yellow flowers. The yellow heads are viewed as being the best in terms of quality.
Color: Pale Yellow to Golden
Common Uses: Ylang ylang oil can assist with problems such as high blood pressure, rapid breathing and heartbeat, nervous conditions,
as well as impotence and frigidity. Spiritual practitioners claim that the users of Ylang Ylang are those who have been drawn to the oil, and who in turn, suit it.

Strength of Aroma: Medium
Blends well with: Bergamot, Grapefruit, Lavender, Neroli, Rosewood and Sandalwood.
Aromatic Scent:Ylang Ylang essential oil has a sweet, exotic, floral scent that is one of the most sought after aromas.
History:In Indonesia, Ylang ylang flower petals are strewn upon the bed of newlywed couples. Ylang ylang was a popular ingredient of hair
preparations in Europe and was known as Macassar oil. The word anti-macassar originated from this, since an anti-maccasar was used to keep hair oil from staining upholstered
furniture.
Cautions:Ylang Ylang can cause sensitivity on some people and excessive use of it may lead to headaches and nausea.

Oh wow! This is the one! Excellent price for a quality Ylang Ylang. #2 puts anything you could find from those bigger brands in stores to shame. I also have the Ylang Ylang Extra, which is almost too much heady for aromatherapy outside of perfumery. This oil is shockingly beautiful.

This is beautiful. I have a few drops dispersed through my drawers on cotton balls, and all my clothes smell subtly heavenly. Highly recommended.

Sensual and intoxicating scent – amazing! I purchased Ylang Ylang #2 and Ylang Ylang #3 and I am unable to tell the difference between them – the scents seem identical.
