Ylang Ylang I Essential Oil 10 ml

• The scent is deeply floral, with a creamy sweetness that sits close rather than sharp.
• It has a naturally rich character, so a little goes a long way in a diffuser or blend.
• In bath or body rituals, it brings a soft perfume-like quality when properly diluted first.
• The dark bottle and black ribbed cap keep the look simple, practical and easy to store.
• Its floral depth makes it a natural companion for slow evenings, dressing tables and scent-led self-care.

This essential oil comes from the flowers of Cananga odorata, the ylang ylang tree. The oil is produced by steam distillation, a traditional method that carries aromatic compounds from the flowers into a concentrated fragrant oil.

Ylang ylang is widely valued in perfumery and cosmetics for its strong floral scent. This is the first grade, often chosen when the flower’s more delicate, perfume-like character is wanted in a blend.

Add a few drops to a diffuser, following the diffuser maker’s guidance. For massage or bath use, dilute well in a suitable carrier oil before it touches the skin.

Patch test before use on skin. Avoid use during pregnancy, with young children, or around pets unless advised by a qualified professional. Keep away from eyes, and store closed in a cool, dry place.

Ylang ylang is often translated from Malay as ‘flower of flowers’, a name that suits its full, romantic scent. In Indonesia, the flowers have traditionally been associated with marriage rituals, including being scattered on the bed of newly married couples. Its fragrance also has a place in older scent traditions beyond the islands where the tree is native, appearing in perfumed spaces, clothing and ceremonial settings. Today, it remains best known as a perfumer’s flower: warm, sensual and unmistakably tropical.
