Ylang Ylang

Description

Ylang Ylang essential oil is steam distilled from the flower of the Ylang Ylang tree. Aromatically, Ylang Ylang has a sweety, rich, spicy scent.
"Ylang Ylang essential oil is used extensively in making perfumes and in aromatherapy. Similar to Jasmine, Ylang Ylang has been used for centuries in religious and wedding ceremonies. In aromatherapy, Ylang Ylang is used to lessen tension and stress and to promote a positive outlook.

Sourcing Information

One of the main reasons I chose dōTERRA is because of where and how they source their essential oils. dōTERRA believes that plants produce the best chemical properties when they are grown and harvested in their native habitat. ​
dōTERRA sources Ylang Ylang from Madagascar (Nosy Be). Each batch of essential oils goes through the following battery of tests to ensure that they are pure, potent, effective oils worthy of the dōTERRA name:

• Organoleptic testing
• Microbial testing

• Mass spectrometry
• Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)
• Chirality testing
• Isotopic analysis
• Heavy metal testing

You can access the GC/MS reports of each batch of dōTERRA essential oils. These tests are done by an independent third party lab. Your unique Quality ID is located on the bottom of your bottle. Enter that ID at sourcetoyou.com to access the reports.
