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.”*

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. After the oil classified as Ylang Ylang Extra is collected, the distillation process continues, creating Ylang Ylang 1, Ylang Ylang 2, and Ylang Ylang 3. The distillation details vary among distillers.

Traditional Uses and Lore:

In Indonesia, it is traditional for newlywed couples to find these blossoms spread on their marriage bed.* In its country of origin, the Ylang Ylang blossoms were immersed in coconut oil until they had 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.*

Dr. Streicher Says:

Ylang Ylang 3 is commonly the least pleasant fraction of Ylang Ylang. However, Amrita has found a distiller who does an excellent job throughout the whole distillation, and even the Ylang Ylang 3 has an amazing quality. That’s why we call it “Ylang Ylang 3 Superior.” It is not as flashy as the earlier fractions but still sweet and very pleasant.*

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 3 is produced in the fourth step of the distillation process. The different grades do not indicate the quality of the oil! The differences are in the main constituents present in each grade which influences the overall scent of the oil. Ylang Ylang 3 Superior’s aroma is richer and less sweet floral aroma with more herbaceous and earthy hints to influence your senses.
