Ylang Ylang essential oil is drawn from the star-shaped flowers of a tropical tree, and it is first and foremost a perfumer’s oil: it is found in many perfumes and high-end hair care products, and it has accompanied wedding ceremonies for centuries. Its aroma is sweet, rich and floral, far headier than that of Lavender, and recognisable from the very first drop.

It invites calm and lifts the mood, and it is worn like a perfume: a diluted drop on the wrists, alone or with Bergamot for a more floral note. In the bathroom, it nourishes the hair for a softer appearance, mixed with fractionated coconut oil as a conditioner or massaged into the scalp. A few drops, diluted, in a warm bath with Epsom salts round off the day.

An oil you wear on the skin as much as you diffuse it.

Principaux bienfaits :
  • Nourishes and strengthens the hair, for thicker, shinier hair.
  • Helps the skin regain a clear, calm appearance.
  • Diffused in the bedroom before bedtime, it sets the scene for peaceful nights.
  • Eases tension and lifts the mood.
  • Associated for centuries with religious and wedding ceremonies, and with beauty care.
