DESCRIPTION

Ylang-Ylang Extra Essential Oil is one of the most sensual and opulent floral essences in natural perfumery. Distilled from fresh flowers of Cananga odorata, its first fraction — the “Extra” grade — represents the most refined and precious form of this oil.

Its aroma is floral, exotic, and enveloping, with sweet, fruity, and lightly balsamic nuances that evoke sensuality and harmony.

A symbol of tropical beauty, Ylang-Ylang Extra is a key ingredient in perfumery, aromatherapy, and natural cosmetics, loved for its ability to rebalance, relax, and inspire positivity.

PERFUMERY

In natural and artisanal perfumery, Ylang-Ylang Extra is a rich and seductive heart note, adding body, roundness, and femininity to floral, oriental, and ambery compositions.

Its velvety and lasting aroma enriches fragrances with an exotic and sensual touch — perfect for white-floral, powdery, and gourmand accords. It pairs beautifully with jasmine, rose, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli, bergamot, and vanilla, creating harmonious and enveloping fragrances.

Its complexity makes it ideal both as a romantic protagonist and as a connector between floral and woody notes, imparting elegance and softness.

AROMATHERAPY

In aromatherapy, Ylang-Ylang Extra is known as the “oil of harmony and calm.”

Its sweet, floral scent helps reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional tension, promoting deep relaxation and inner serenity. It is also a powerful nervous system balancer, useful for calming the heartbeat and fostering a state of peace and pleasurable tranquility.

When diffused or added to aromatic baths, Ylang-Ylang Extra brings a profound sense of well-being, gently uplifting vitality and self-confidence.

COSMETICS

In natural cosmetics, Ylang-Ylang Extra is appreciated for its toning, balancing, and regenerating properties. It helps normalize sebum production — beneficial for both dry and oily skin — and enhances skin tone, giving brightness and uniformity.

In hair care, it is considered a precious ally to strengthen and perfume the hair, leaving it soft, shiny, and beautifully scented.

Its intense, sensual aroma transforms every treatment into a unique tropical, sensorial experience typical of high-quality natural cosmetics.
