About the Plant:
The velvety yellow flowers produce a heady and sensual oil very similar to Jasmine. Like Jasmine and Rose, the blossoms are harvested and processed in the early morning. The spirit of Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is best described as radiant, passionate, and quintessentially feminine, so it is no wonder Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is revered around the world as an aphrodisiac, stirring the blood and engaging the heart and mind toward romance.*
Where It Grows:
The Ylang Ylang tree, which originated in the Philippines, belongs to the custard apple family. Today it is also cultivated in Java, Sumatra, Comoro Islands, Zanzibar, Haiti, and Madagascar. In the Malayan language, Ylang Ylang means “flower of flowers.”* There is no flower more luscious or sweetly fragranced. This precious nectar is commonly distilled in "fractions,” meaning at various stages the oil is taken off and then the distillation continues, producing other grades of oil. Ylang Ylang Complete is a compounding of all the stages of distillation.
Traditional Uses and Lore:
In Indonesia, it is traditional for newlywed couples to find these blossoms spread on their marriage bed to enhance love, romance, and fertility.* In its country of origin, the Ylang Ylang blossoms were immersed in coconut oil until they absorbed all the fragrance. The oil was then used to prevent fever and infectious diseases.*
In Victorian times, Ylang Ylang Essential Oil was used as a hair treatment.* For those looking for the appearance of more lustrous hair, Ylang Ylang was diluted in carrier oils to stimulate and arouse the scalp with gentle massage.* In fact, it was popular in men’s hair tonics in the late 1800’s.*

There are actually five different classifications or types of Ylang Ylang essential oil based on the time at which the oil is taken off (fractionated off) during the whole distillation process. Ylang Ylang Complete becomes the closest to the actual aroma of Ylang Ylang because of it is produced by an undisturbed distillation of between 15-20 hours. This variety of Ylang Ylang has fruity notes and retains a rich floral character, but with heavier balsamic aroma. Surprisingly, Ylang Ylang Complete is not a fraction, but is the total of all fractions! This is why it is the preferred oil for aromatherapy.*
