ALQVIMIA Ylang Ylang Essential Oil

Known as "the flower of flowers", Ylang Ylang Essential Oil is extracted from the flower of the Cananga odorata tree and is prized for its warm, floral, and exotic aroma. Used for centuries for its aphrodisiac properties, this essential oil is a symbol of femininity, sensuality, and well-being. Its intense and enveloping fragrance makes it an essential ingredient in aromatherapy and personal care, promoting relaxation and emotional balance.

The name "ylang-ylang" comes from Tagalog and can mean "rare flower" or "wild flower," reflecting its exceptional essence and natural habitat in tropical forests. Originally from tropical Asia and cultivated in Java, Sumatra, and the Comoros Islands, this exotic tree produces large flowers in shades of pink, mauve, and yellow, from which its precious essence is extracted.

In Indonesia, ylang-ylang flowers are scattered over the beds of newlyweds as a symbol of love and purity. In the Moluccas Islands, they are traditionally used in ointments for skincare, hair care, and to relieve various ailments. Its ancestral use in cosmetics and perfumery has made it one of the most valued essential oils.

How to use:

Diffuser

A very common use of Essential Oils for its ease and versatility. Put between 5-12 drops in the diffuser, depending on the square meters of the room.

Inhalation

Place 1-3 drops on a handkerchief and inhale for a few minutes.

Body use

We recommend mixing a carrier Vegetable Oil, such as Almond Oil, in a proportion of 97% with a synergy of pure Essential Oils in a proportion of 3%, and apply on the skin with a gentle massage

Spray air freshener

Provides a unique aromatic sensation in your home by creating a natural fragrance based on essential oils. Apply 25 drops per 250ml of water.

Facial Massage

We can enhance the effect of a facial massage by using a carrier Vegetable Oil (99%) with 1% Essential Oil. This is equivalent to approximately 20 drops of Essential Oil per 100ml of Vegetable Oil.

In the bathtub

By applying 10 to 15 drops of the Essential Oil of your choice, we can achieve a particularly relaxing and penetrating experience of its properties. It is recommended to previously dilute the Essential Oil with a small amount of vegetable milk, because as they have a fatty phase, it helps not to form drops or accumulations of essential oils in the water that can irritate the skin.

Precautions:

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light and keeping the container tightly closed with the original cap.
