Ylang Ylang Organic Essential Oil 10ml – Cananga Odorata | Steam Distilled Comores

Discover the lush, intoxicating opulence of pure Organic Ylang Ylang Essential Oil, steam distilled from the flowers of Cananga Odorata sourced from the Comores Islands. Rich, heady and deeply floral — with a voluptuous, honeyed sweetness, a creamy tropical warmth and a soft, slightly spicy depth — Ylang Ylang is one of the most intensely beautiful, sensuous and instantly recognisable essential oils in the world of aromatherapy and natural perfumery.

The name Ylang Ylang comes from the Tagalog word meaning 'flower of flowers' — a fitting tribute to one of the most extravagantly fragrant blossoms in the natural world. The large, star-shaped yellow flowers of the Cananga Odorata tree are harvested by hand and steam distilled to produce an oil of extraordinary aromatic complexity and depth. The Comores Islands — an archipelago off the east coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean — are among the world's most prized sources of Ylang Ylang, producing oil of exceptional quality and richness in the warm, humid tropical climate.

Ylang Ylang has been treasured for centuries across Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean islands — traditionally used to adorn bridal beds in Indonesia, woven into garlands for ceremonies and celebrations, and prized as a key ingredient in some of the world's most iconic perfumes, including Chanel No. 5. Its deeply floral, exotic and emotionally warming character makes it one of the most beloved and widely used botanicals in luxury natural perfumery and aromatherapy blending.

With its rich, enveloping and deeply uplifting aromatic character, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is a treasured choice for diffusing, natural perfumery, massage blending and personal care formulations.
