Well, after making all my different products I decided to do something just for me! So I purchased Ylang Ylang #3. What an amazing, sensual, intoxicating scent it is. I just luvvvvvvvvvvv putting a few drops of it in bath water for a totally indulging, relaxing, zen moment of rest for ME! Well maybe my hubby also! But knowing how I am - I'll probably end up sharing this wonderful secret with my customers. Love you EO's!

I really went back and forth on buying this. I just purchase from ND for fun so compared with the other EOs on here this is on the expensive end for me. But I'm so happy I did buy it. A little bit goes a long way and it smells so good, very exotic. I take full, deep breaths when I'm using it. I'm such a fan of floral scents; it's really nice to have one to work with now.

Ylang ylang has proven to be a wonderful hair moisturizer for me! It's fragrance is very feminine...not too flowery though. With a touch of sweetness. It also has a calming effect on me. I highly recommend it.

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.
