Description

**Description:** Organic Ylang-Ylang essential oil is obtained from the flowers of the Cananga odorata tree through steam distillation. The yield of essential oil from the plant material ranges from 1.5% to 2.5%.

**Special Characteristics:** Organic Ylang-Ylang essential oil is a colorless to yellow liquid with a characteristic floral scent accompanied by light woody notes. It dissolves easily in carrier oils and other essential oils but only partially in ethanol. It is almost insoluble in water. The main constituents include benzyl benzoate, benzyl salicylate, linalool, farnesol, and geraniol. Phenolic compounds such as methyl eugenol and estragole are present in smaller concentrations.

**Applications:** Organic Ylang-Ylang essential oil is said to have relaxing and slightly sedative effects, which is why it is used in alternative medicine for heart-related issues. It also relieves pain and is added to headache and muscle pain relief ointments.

Organic Ylang-Ylang essential oil is widely used as an aromatic ingredient in fine fragrances and skincare products due to its characteristic and pleasant scent. Apart from being a wonderful aroma in perfumery, organic Ylang-Ylang essential oil nourishes and cares for oily skin and hair, providing moisture without weighing them down.

In aromatherapy, organic Ylang-Ylang essential oil is used for fatigue, anxiety, or when stress levels are high, as it offers a sense of security and confidence.

**Caution:** Always use diluted in a carrier oil or other solvent.
