Ylang Ylang Extra Essential Oil Certified Organic

The Flower of Flowers, in its finest grade. Ylang Ylang Extra is the most prized and aromatic expression of one of the world's most celebrated floral oils.

Valley of the Moon's Ylang Ylang Extra is a certified organic essential oil steam distilled from the flowers of Cananga odorata, sourced from Madagascar. Sweet, floral, delicate, and alluring, Ylang Ylang Extra is collected from the very first hour of steam distillation, capturing the purest, most intensely fragrant fraction of the flower. There are five grades of Ylang Ylang, and Extra is the finest. Once you have experienced its clarity and depth, the other grades simply don't compare.
