Ylang Ylang Organic Essential Oil

Our organic Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is steam distilled from the freshly picked, honeyed blossoms of the tall Cananga odorata var. genuina tree growing wild in the forests of Madagascar. As one of the world’s most popular essential oils, with its intensely sweet, highly floral aroma with fruity, woody, spicy, slightly balsamic notes, the powerfully scented Ylang Ylang Oil is ideal to incorporate into skincare, aroma therapeutic, and natural perfumery products.

Because of its great use in perfumery applications, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is traditionally distilled for varying lengths to produce essential oils with differing constituents and aromatic profiles. Our Ylang Ylang Complete is the result of a continuous, uninterrupted distillation of up to 18 hours, rendering a full spectrum, non-fractionated (complete) oil. In aromatherapy, there is no better expression of this sensual flower than in the wide spectrum of therapeutic and aromatic possibilities offered by Ylang Ylang Complete Oil.

Each and every batch of Amala essential oils is tested by an independent international laboratory before being sent to us. A Certificate of Analysis is issued, stating the purity of the oil.
