Essential Oil - Malagasy Ylang Ylang

Essential oils are super concentrated oils made from plants. Some are made from the bark, some from leaves, some from roots, others from flowers, and some are even from the skin of fruits. All of Ollie's oils are 100% pure, brought straight from farmers and distillers to you.

Product benefits

Ylang Ylang is a yellow, star-shaped flower that grows on the Cananga tree that has a potent, aromatic, fruity, flowery, and rich fragrance. Incorporated as the top note in the iconic Chanel No. 5 perfume, Ylang Ylang is great for boosting your mood, reducing depression and anxiety, lowering blood pressure, repelling bugs, and helping soothe parched skin. It is also known to be an aphrodisiac!
