- Perfume note: In natural perfumery, ylang-ylang acts as a powerful middle (heart) note. It has great diffusion strength and blends superbly with citrus notes (Bergamot, Lemon), woody notes (Pine, Cedarwood, Sandalwood), and other floral notes (Geranium, Rose, Neroli, Jasmine).
Questions and Answers (FAQ)
Q: I find the scent of ylang-ylang essential oil very strong and sweet. How can I use it without it being overwhelming?
A: Ylang-ylang has a remarkable olfactory strength. To tone it down, it is recommended to use it in small concentrations and to combine it with citrus essential oils.
Q: Can I add ylang-ylang essential oil directly into my store-bought shampoo to add shine?
A: Adding essential oils directly into finished commercial cosmetic products is not recommended, as they can destabilize the formula's structure. It is ideal to use it in neutral shampoo bases, in DIY hair masks, or by adding 1-2 drops into the portion of shampoo being applied at that moment.
Q: Is this essential oil suitable for face care as well?
A: Ylang-Ylang has an intense aroma and contains compounds with allergen potential. On the face, it should only be used in very high dilutions, following the maximum percentages indicated in the IFRA document.

I don't know what a quality ylang-ylang essence is supposed to smell like, but this oil has an intense fragrance, bringing with the queen flower of the night. It's not an unpleasant smell at all, but it's very intense smelling straight from the bottle.

It has a nasty, unspecific odor. sometimes it smells like burnt plastic to me , other times like dung. I don't know what to do with it, I've tried using it for aromatherapy, but the smell makes you leave the room/house. Maybe I got the wrong batch from the wrong manufacturer.
