Ylang Ylang Extra

From Ananda Aromatherapy, pure essential oil of Ylang Ylang, this is from the initial distillation of the flower - before even Ylang Ylang no.1... somewhat confusing, we know, but we didn't make it up! A somewhat higher note, less sweet than the number one.

This Ylang Ylang Extra essential oil from the initial distillation of the Ylang Ylang flower. The nomenclature describes 4 common distillations: Extra, No. 1, 2, and 3. After sampling several new Ylang Ylangs, this was found to be the nicest complement to our Ylang Ylang #1. The finest Ylang Ylang oils are generally of this first distillation - this is lightly floral, bright, and mildly spicy. It is the 'extra' that is most often used in perfumery.

The essential oil of Ylang Ylang is distilled from the flowers of a tall tropical tree, growing up to 20 meters high. Its flowers are found in colors ranging from pink to yellow, with the yellow being considered best for essential oil production. The aroma is considered a 'euphoric', with the earlier distillations being more energizing. The spiciness of this 'extra' makes it quite uplifting; the no. 1 has a sweeter note that may be more appropriate for applications where relaxation is of the utmost importance.
