FEATURES AND BENEFITS

A Softer Bloom: Ylang Ylang Essential Oil (#2) is steam distilled from the flowers of Cananga odorata grown in Madagascar. This mid-distillation grade offers a beautifully balanced scent — less intense than #1, but still richly floral and exotic.

Floral Serenity: With a sweet, gently intoxicating aroma, Ylang Ylang is known for its calming effect on both skin and spirit. A go-to for diffuser blends, massage oils, and bath products that invite peace and relaxation.

Glow Getter: Ylang Ylang Essential Oil (#2) helps balance sebum production, making it a favorite in formulations for both dry and oily skin. Use in facial oils, creams, or masks for a radiant, harmonized complexion. It also stands out in conditioners and scalp oils — supporting softness, shine, and healthy hair.

Blendable Beauty: A versatile base note, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil blends beautifully with citrus, florals, and soft woods — ideal for natural perfumery or custom aroma creations.
