Ylang Ylang Essential Oil

Exotic, deeply floral and richly sensual, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is steam distilled from the freshly gathered blossoms of Cananga odorata var. genuina growing in the forests of Madagascar. Revered in natural perfumery and traditional aromatic practices, this luxurious oil carries an intensely sweet floral aroma layered with soft fruity, woody and balsamic undertones.

Our Ylang Ylang Complete is produced through a continuous, full-spectrum distillation process, capturing the complete aromatic profile of the flower in a beautifully rounded and complex oil. Rich, expressive and highly fragrant, only a small amount is needed to bring depth and elegance to aromatic and botanical preparations.

Traditionally used in aromatherapy to encourage relaxation and emotional balance, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is often incorporated into diffuser blends, massage oils and evening rituals intended to create a calming and comforting atmosphere. Its soft floral warmth lends itself beautifully to moments of rest, reflection and sensory indulgence.

Within natural skincare and haircare, Ylang Ylang is appreciated for its balancing and softening qualities. It is frequently included in facial oils, body products, scalp preparations and botanical perfumes where it contributes richness, floral depth and a luxurious sensory experience.

Emotionally, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is often associated with softness, sensuality and emotional ease. Its richly floral aroma may help quiet mental tension while encouraging a sense of warmth, harmony and gentle upliftment.

Highly prized in natural perfumery, Ylang Ylang also acts as an exceptional fixative, adding depth and longevity to floral, citrus, spice and resinous blends.

Each batch of Crest Essential Oils is carefully selected for purity and quality. All oils are independently tested and accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis confirming authenticity and composition.
